Dennis Praet has put pen-to-paper on a new contract that ties him to Sampdoria through to the end of the 2020/21 season the Genoa based club have confirmed.

Gazzetta dello Sport detail that he is keeping the same salary of €1.5 million but is getting increased bonuses as part of the new deal. Moreover, the €26 million release clause that was in his previous contract has now been removed. This news will come as a blow to Inter and the many other clubs who have been reported as interested in him in recent months as they will now in all likelihood need to pay more than that if they wish to sign him.
