Portuguese stopper pledges future to Spanish giants

Star defender Pepe has finally penned a new deal at Real Madrid, according to reports in the Spanish media. The Portugal international has been in negotiations with Primera Liga giants Real for months over a fresh contract. Pepe was originally tied to the Bernabeu until 2012, but Spanish newspaper Marca has announced the 28-year-old has now extended his deal at the Spanish club until June 2015. The centre-half had been linked with a move to the Premier League ahead of agreeing the extension, with Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal all believed to be interested in his services. Brazilian-born Pepe, who arrived at Real from Porto in 2007, has notched up over 100 appearances for the capital club.
