Nesta extends Milan contract
Alessandro Nesta has joined team-mates Kaka and Andrea Pirlo in signing an extended contract at AC Milan. The 30-year-old World Cup-winning defender has put pen to paper on a deal that will keep him at the San Siro until 2011.
Milan had been getting nervous after the passing of a recent FIFA ruling meaning players of 28 years-of-age and who have spent five years or more at the same club can buy themselves out of the final year of their contract.
But Nesta, currently out injured with a thigh strain, was clear in his intention to stay with the club he joined from Lazio in the summer of 2002.
