Livingston had feared losing Emmanuel Dorado

Livingston had feared losing the 31-year-old after talks were delayed by negotiations over the club's takeover.

But Livi boss Allan Preston said: "He was a rock at the centre of defence alongside Rubio last season and it was important to us to keep him on.

"He is happy that everything is settled and he's looking forward to playing at Almondvale again."

News of Dorado's re-signing came 24 hours after Rubio also agreed to remain with the Scottish Premier League club.
