Rossoneri fans across the world will be happy to know that Clarence Seedorf has prolonged his contract until the end of June 2011
The AC Milan headquarters in Via Turati had their eyes out for those players that stood out from the crowd in the summer of 2002 and they saw something special in new signings Clarence Seedorf, Jon Dahl Tomasson, Rivaldo, Dario Simic and Alessandro Nesta.
After a closely watched departure from intercity rivals Inter, Seedorf has become a fixture in the Rossoneri midfield. Since then he has been anything but run-of-the-mill in his five seasons with Milan, as he climbs over the 200 official game mark. Time has shown what a wise decision it was to sign the Dutch-Surinamese champion who in the 2003-04 season helped Milan to the Italian Cup, UEFA Super Cup, Italian league title and the Italian Super Cup. It was a good choice and one with which all Rossoneri fans can be satisfied and last night’s news that Seedorf prolonged his contract until the end of June 2011 is simply music to everyone's ears.
