Navas extends Sevilla stay

Spain winger Jesus Navas has committed himself to Sevilla until the summer of 2015.

The 25-year-old, a reported transfer target of a number of leading European clubs, was due to be out of contract with the Andalusian club next year.

“The agreement extends for this and four more seasons, until June 2015,” said club president Jose Maria Del Nido.

“We have reached an agreement that is satisfactory for all.

“This has been instrumental in Jesus’ thoughts of staying here for many years.

“The release clause is €35m. It is a suitable provision and well above the level of sales that are customary in the current market.

“It is a contract according to what he is worth and deserves it as he is a world champion. I never saw him in any other shirt.”
