Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder penned a two-year extension to his current deal, club president Massimo Moratti revealed at a shareholders meeting on Thursday.
The 26-year-old has been linked with a move away from the San Siro in recent weeks, with Premier League outfit Manchester United thought to be chasing his signature.
However, Sneijder has now committed to the cause at Inter by putting pen-to-paper on a new deal with the Nerazzurri.
"The fans will be happy above all else because we have today reached an agreement with Wesley Sneijder for a contract extension until 2015," said Moratti.
"Sneijder became a key player for Inter last season and will be this year, and for many years to come.
"The negotiations started despite the fact he had a long time to go on his old deal but with mutual satisfaction they were completed this morning."
No figures were mentioned, but it is reported Sneijder's new contract is worth in the region of €5 million per season.
