Turkish midfielder Tugay has signed a 12-month contract extension to keep him at Blackburn Rovers.
The 34-year-old was set to be out of contract at Ewood Park at the end of the season, but the former Rangers star will be staying put.

"We’ve been very pleased with him, he’s a top class player who has an impact on games and we’re keen to keep him," said Rovers’ manager Mark Hughes.

"We are delighted to look forward to another season with Tugay on board."
