Read what he had to say, as his attention now turns to the new campaign...

The renewal

"Of course I'm very happy. It was very much my desire to stay at this club long-term. We managed to get this done two days ago. I'm very happy to carry on playing here. I always said I still have a lot to achieve here, so I'm very happy to have signed a new contract.

"I hope this year is a successful one for us. I feel even more motivated now. I also feel in very good shape. So this season I'll try to give all I have, as has always been the case.

"Ultimately I feel that everyone has faith in me, including the club executives. As we said, the contract's been signed and the matter is settled. I'm grateful to all those who've shown faith in me. This was always the most important thing for me."
