Pepe close to agreeing new Real Madrid contract

Real Madrid defender Pepe is close to agreeing a contract renewal at the Santiago Bernabeu. 

The 32-year-old has played well this season and is set to be given a deal which stretches until 2018

This season the Portuguese defender has behaved himself and rarely got involved in any controversial incidents.

There was a scrap between him and Luis Suarez during the recent Clasico, which ended in both players being booked for fouling the other in separate incidents.

Suarez won the battle in the end, escaping Pepe's clutches to score what proved to be the winning goal.
