Brazilian playmaker Lucas Moura has extended his contract with French champions Paris Saint-Germain by a further two seasons, with his new deal running to 2019.

Paris won a struggle with both Manchester clubs to sign the 22-year-old from Sao Paulo in January 2013 for a blockbuster 45 million euros, in a deal that originally ran until 2017.

"I'm proud to play here. I want to improve and help the team keep winning trophies," said Lucas, whose side won the league title, the French Cup and the League Cup this season.

"Next year we want the Champions League title," added the Brazilian, whose side were beaten by Barcelona in the quarter-finals this season.

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, who brought Lucas to Paris as part of an ambitious drive from the Qatari owners, also expressed his pride in having a player such as Lucas at the club.
