Michael O’Neill has signed a new four-year contract to stay on as Northern Ireland manager.
The deal takes him through until at least 2020.
O’Neill guided his side to reach their first major tournament since 1986 by qualifying for Euro 2016.
The Irish FA deal is said to be worth £500,000 a year as he becomes the highest-paid manager in Northern Ireland’s history.
Meanwhile, O’Neill has named English-born QPR striker Conor Washington and Peterborough defender Michael Smith in the 24-man group to face Wales and Slovenia in friendlies.
