Aug 22 : Chelsea forward Joao Pedro has signed a contract extension that will keep him at Stamford Bridge until 2034, the Premier League club said on Saturday.

The 24-year-old, a surprise omission from Brazil's squad for this summer's World Cup, had reportedly attracted interest from several top clubs.

"I always dreamed of playing for a big club, and it means a lot to me to give my long-term commitment to this club," Pedro said in a statement.

Signed from Brighton last year, Pedro scored 20 goals in all competitions.

Chelsea open their Premier League campaign at Fulham on Monday.
