BERLIN, Aug. 14 (Xinhua) -- Borussia Monchengladbach have extended the expiring contract with Oscar Wendt, the "Foals" announced in an official statement on Monday.
The 31-year-old defender will stay with the "Foals" after putting pen to paper on a contract extension, which will keep him with Borussia until June 2019.
"Oscar developed into a key player. He is our team skipper. We are therefore very delighted about his contract extension," Monchengladbach's sporting director Max Eberl said.
The former Sweden international joined Monchengladbach in 2011 and provided 13 goals in 181 appearances since his arrival.
"It was my wish to extend my contract here. I always said that I feel super comfortable at Borussia. I love to play for this club and I am glad that I can stay here for longer," Wendt told the club's official homepage.
Monchengladbach will encounter Cologne at the first round in Bundesliga on August 20.
