Byrne has been out of action since October with a knee injury but returned to training over the weekend.
And he will be a Dundee player for the next two and a half seasons after putting pen to paper today.
After signing for the club in 2019, Byrne became a mainstay for James McPake’s Dark Blues.
Anchoring the midfield, the former Livingston man played a pivotal role in the club’s promotion through the play-offs last term.
He continued that impressive form in the top flight this term before injury struck.
So far, Byrne has made 73 appearances for Dundee and will hope to face his old club Livingston next week as he returns to fitness.
