QPR have triggered an option to extend defender Jimmy Dunne's contract.
Dunne, 26, signed a three-year deal when he arrived from Burnley in 2021 but the contract included an option for Rangers to extend his stay at Loftus Road by a further 12 months.
The Irishman has made 101 Championship appearances for the Rs. Primarily a centre-back, he has recently been deployed at right-back by boss Marti Cifuentes.
“I am really happy to be staying at QPR,” Dunne told the club website, external.
“Everyone know how much I love this club and everything it stands for.
“This has been a tough season, a real roller coaster, and I am looking forward to the break but am also excited about the future.”
QPR secured their Championship status by beating play-off bound Leeds United in their penultimate game of the season, on their way to finishing six points clear of the relegation zone in 18th.
