Michael Carrick has penned a new one-year contract with Manchester United that would
see him tied to the club until at least June 2018.
The 35-year-old Midfielder is a hugely popular figure at Old Trafford, having signed for the club from Tottenham back in
2006.
His time at United has been laden with trophies and he remains an integral figure at the club, having made 38 appearances this season, including 18 Premier League
starts, SkySports reports.
Capped 34 times by England, Carrick has been granted a testimonial by United, which
will take place next Sunday.
The Europa League will be paraded in front of fans that day and Carrick said: “What a
fantastic way to finish off the season, with a new trophy in our cabinet.
“I am delighted that my journey with this great club is going to continue.
“My focus now is looking ahead to my testimonial match next Sunday. It will be a very proud moment for me and my family,
and is the perfect way to top what has already been a great season.
“I am thrilled that the fans will also get to see our shiny new Europa League trophy on
the day.”
