Keane commits to Galaxy with new 'multi-year' deal

The Ireland captain is clearly enjoying life in California.

LA GALAXY HAVE announced that Robbie Keane has formally agreed to remain in the MLS for the foreseeable future.

The Ireland captain, who arrived from Tottenham in the summer of 2010, has played a pivotal role in helping the Galaxy claim two MLS Cup titles on the bounce.

The 32-year-old has racked up 18 goals and 10 assists in regular season games and, with David Beckham departing, becomes the player with the most experience at the top level in Bruce Arena’s side.

The LA Galaxy announced today that the club has agreed to a multi-year contract extension with forward Robbie Keane,” a statement on the club’s website reads. “Per club and league policy, details of the contract were not released.”

Keane, who is currently spending a fortnight back in England training with Spurs, has also ruled out a loan move to the Premier League during the MLS off-season.
