Tokyo Verdy on Thursday announced that the club has reached an agreement with current manager Koichi Togashi to lead the team in 2016.
The retired defender took over at the club in 2014, and has achieved a record of 16 wins, 10 draws and 15 defeats in the MEIJI YASUDA J2 League this season.
Seventh-placed Verdy could yet finish the season with a berth in the MEIJI YASUDA J1 League promotion play-off after their final match against Cerezo Osaka next Monday.
The club are entertaining thoughts of a return to the top-flight, where they last featured there in 2008, next season.
