Portugal international Fabio Coentrao has extended his contract with Benfica by one year until the summer of 2016, the Portuguese champions announced on Monday.

The 22-year-old left-back, who starred for Portugal at the World Cup in South Africa, was reportedly the target of a 20-million-euro transfer bid by Bayern Munich in the off-season.

But the Lisbon club refused to part with the player, for whom they wanted at least 30 million euros.
