Portugal Under-21 striker Andre Silva has penned a five-year contract extension with Porto, the Portuguese giants announced on Sunday. Silva, 20, broke into the Porto first team last season and his new deal, which includes a 60-million-euro ($68 million) release clause, will keep him at the club until 2021. He scored a late winner for Porto in Saturday's 1-0 victory at home to Estoril, having also netted the equaliser midweek against Roma in the first leg of their Champions League play-off tie.
