Ashcroft told Dundee’s official website: “Delighted to get the deal done, I have loved my three years at the club so far and looking forward to hopefully a successful season in the top division after winning the league last year.”
The former Dunfermline centre-back joined Dundee in 2020 and has gone on to make 97 appearances for the club.
This is Ashcroft’s second promotion to the Premiership with the club after he was part of the 2020/21 team to go up through the play-offs.
This week also saw five members of last season’s Championship-winning squad leave Dens Park after their contracts expired.
