Pizarro signs one-year Werder Bremen extension

Claudio Pizarro has signed a one-year contract extension with Werder Bremen. The 37-year-old striker returned to the club for a third spell in September and scored 14 goals in 28 appearances to help them secure Bundesliga survival. The Peru international, who leads Bremen’s all-time scoring charts in the top flight on 103, is determined to fire the club to a better campaign in 2015-16 after they escaped a relegation play-off on the final matchday this term with a 1-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt.
