Beto extends Sevilla stay

Portuguese international goalkeeper Alberto Bastos Pimparel, better known as Beto, has penned a two-year extension to his contract with Sevilla, the La Liga club said Monday.

Beto, 32, arrived at Sevilla in 2013, on a contract which initially ran until June 30 next.

"I'm very satisfied," said Beto, who won the Europa League last season with the club.

"I wanted to continue working with this club who have given me so much. It's a very happy day for me and my family."

The club said in a statement that Beto was rewarded for his remarkable performances over the past two years, playing 83 games, as Sevilla sit fifth in La Liga this season.
