Chelsea forward Pedro has signed a one-year contract extension, keeping him at the club until the summer of 2020.

He told the club's official website: "It is very good for me, I am really happy here in the club, with my team-mates, the supporters and the club in general.

"It's important for me to continue with Chelsea, I am comfortable here and want to win new titles and trophies.

"I want to help the team, score goals, and I repeat, I am really happy."

Club director Marina Granovskaia said: "We are very happy to secure Pedro's services for another year.
