Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard has signed a new five-year contract which will keep him at the club until 2013.
The England international had run into the final year of his deal and was a target for Inter Milan, who are managed by ex-Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho.
But Lampard, who held out for a long-term deal, has finally agreed a new deal which he says will keep him at the club for the rest of his career.
Lampard, 30, moved to Stamford Bridge from West Ham for £11m in June 2001.
"I'm personally very happy and I hope I've made the Chelsea fans happy," Lampard told Chelsea TV after signing his new deal on Wednesday.
"I've had seven great seasons here and now I can have many more.
"It's been a difficult summer for many reasons and that was one of the frustrating things, a lot of things were said that were untrue, some things were said that were slightly true and that was frustrating.
It's taken both Frank and the club longer than we originally thought
Peter Kenyon
Chelsea chief executive
"Now we can put that to bed and concentrate on football."
Speculation surrounding the goal-scoring midfielder rumbled on as the Londoner entered the final year of his previous contract and it intensified when former Blues boss Mourinho tabled a bid to take him to Inter Milan after he became their manager in June.
But Lampard thanked the club for giving him time to decide on his future, especially in light of the death of his mother in April.
"My world got turned upside down and I don't think it is anything anyone appreciates until you go through it," added Lampard. "The club gave me time and I appreciate that.
"I feel for sure I've made 100% the right decision, for myself, for my family and for Chelsea Football Club."
Chelsea chief executive Peter Kenyon admitted that contract talks had dragged on, but only because it was such a major decision for Lampard to make.
"It's taken both Frank and the club longer than we originally thought," he said.
"These are big issues for the club, for Frank and any other player.
"Whatever has gone on I think there is that underlying desire that we get there. this is a great day for the club."
