The new deal will keep Donovan at the club through the 2013 MLS season.
“I am excited to be able to pledge my future to the Galaxy by signing this new contract,” Donovan said.
“I have enjoyed my time with the Galaxy and am committed to helping bring the club another MLS Cup championship.
“I believe in this team and I want to be a part of its bright future. This is a great day for me both personally and professionally and I look forward to many successful years ahead.”
“Landon’s signing is great news for our fans and our club and is further proof that the Galaxy/AEG are committed to building a team that can compete for the MLS Cup year in and year out,” Galaxy general manager and coach Bruce Arena said.
“He is our captain, our leader and the league’s MVP and we believe that Landon signing this new contract is a key aspect to bringing the Galaxy further success both on and off the field.”
