"We had a great time here last season.
It was a tough year, of course, with a lot of goals and assists for me personally.
"But winning the national title was ultimately the absolute highlight for all of us.
Our fans were also fantastic, and I want to thank them for that.
But just as I expect from the players, I also expect our supporters to take another step forward together next season.

Perisic had a significant impact on the comeback, scoring seven goals and providing three assists in the final eight league games.
Football director Earnest Stewart called Perisic an example to other players.

We are all very happy that Ivan is staying at PSV.
