Sevilla s Brazilian-born striker Luis Fabiano, the Primera Liga s second top scorer with 24 goals last season, has extended his contract with the club until June 2011, the Spanish side said Saturday.
The new contract includes a termination clause of 25 million euros (40 million dollars) and an undisclosed raise which the club said will make him one of its best-paid players along with fellow striker Frederic Kanoute and centre back Sebastien Squillaci.
The 27-year-old joined Sevilla in 2005 from Portuguese giants FC Porto and helped them to win the 2006 and 2007 UEFA Cups, plus the Spanish King s Cup in 2007.
Last week Fabiano, who reportedly was being chased by other clubs including Real Madrid, obtained Spanish citizenship, meaning he no longer takes up one …
Alexis Sanchez was on the scoresheet as Serie A leaders Inter brushed aside Salernitana 5-0 at Stadio Arechi on Friday.
Linked with a possible January move to Barcelona in recent days, the Chile forward was handed just his third league start of the season and repaid coach Simone Inzaghi with his first top-flight goal since May.
Ivan Perisic and Denzel Dumfries had already put the Nerazzurri comfortably in control in the first half, the latter scoring his side s 100th league goal of 2021.
Substitutes Lautaro Martinez and Roberto Gagliardini added fourth and fifth goals for Inter, who now lead Serie A by four points with one game left this year.

Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone applauded the work of his opposite number Carlo Ancelotti after losing to the Italian s Real Madrid in Sunday s derby.
Los Blancos claimed a 2-1 win at the Civitas Metropolitano to ensure they go into the international break at the top of the table.
Madrid have won all of their first six LaLiga games in the 2022-23 season and rarely looked especially worried against Atletico, despite the hosts dictating the tempo for much of the second half.
Goals from Rodrygo and Federico Valverde in the first period sent Madrid on their way and, although Mario Hermoso – who was also sent off late on for two bookings – pulled one back, the away side were good value for the win.
Simeone subsequently struggled to hide his admiration …

So much for Father Time being undfeated. The ageless Tom Brady has turned back the clock in his 23rd year in the NFL, delivering a number of vintage performances despite being older than 13 NFL coaches.
After a short-lived retirement that lasted all of 40 days, Brady is back in a Tampa Bay Buccaneers uniform and looking to win his eighth Super Bowl. The former sixth-round pick is coming off a season in which he threw for the most pass yards of his career (5,316) and the most passing touchdowns since his renowned 2007 campaign.
Happy 45th birthday to @TomBrady ?????? 8x MVP?? 7x Super Bowl Champion ?? 10x Conference Champion?? 15x ProBowl?? 6x AllPro?? 2000s, 2010s All-Decade Team?? Most TDs, Completions, Yards, Wins in History?? In 2…
Joshua Dobbs has been one the best stories of the NFL season so far and looks to add another chapter to his football folklore when the Minnesota Vikings host the New Orleans Saints in Week 10 odds.
Dobbs, who parlayed his sudden success in Arizona into a trade to the Vikings before Week 9, had to step in for injured backup quarterback Jaren Hall and willed Minnesota to a 31-28 victory over Atlanta despite being with the team for only a few days.
Dobbs & Co. get a tougher test against this New Orleans defense, which ranks among the stingiest in the land. The Saints sit Top 10 in many advanced defensive ratings, including allowing the ninth-lowest points per play.

Carlo Ancelotti said he wanted to make history with Everton after becoming the first manager to lead the club to victory over Liverpool at Anfield since 1999.
The Italian was full of praise for Jordan Pickford, his team’s defending and their clinical finishing as Everton ended a miserable run at Anfield. Ancelotti believes the performance showed his team can compete with the leading lights of the Premier League but must be replicated at Goodison Park, where Everton have won four league games this season compared with eight away.
