Just two days after renewed speculation linking Joao Moutinho with a move to The Premier League, the Portugal international has signed a new contract with Sporting.The playmaker came close to joining Everton last summer and, in a report in a Sunday tabloid, Arsenal and Chelsea were the latest clubs linked with a possible interest in Moutinho.Sporting have now tied their captain to a new deal that extends his contract by one season and rewards him with a pay rise, but the conditions attached to the arrangement have also changed.Moutinho’s release clause has dropped from €25 million (£22.2 million) to €22.5 million (£20 million) and he has also waived the right to a commission from any future transfer, as well as losing his right to collect a payment of 10 percent of any offer over €15 million (£13.3 million) that Sporting reject.
