Fantastic news - it will surely contain a release clause but great achievement to lock him down (for now) amongst interest from some of the world's biggest clubs. A terrific boon for the club ahead of this weekend and just shows what can be done when all parties work together with a willing player. Hopefully his loyalty is rewarded with some on pitch success
It’s brilliant news because his value has now substantially increased due to his long term contract . Now worth at least £100m , which will put off Arsenal & most other clubs I expect .
As has been mentioned, the contract is sure to have a release clause in there, but this deal gives him a pay rise which may delay his desire to move on, and it means we can demand top dollar if anyone does want to sign him.
