The new deal will keep the 36-year-old at Camp Nou until the summer of 2013.
“It’s great to continue with this club,” Pinto told Barcelona’s official website. “For me, it’s the best present.”
“I (only) came for six months and I’ve had a great time. Personally, I’ve found myself in a dressing room which I like very much.”
“It’s a very special moment for me that myself and my family are enjoying.”
