MANCHESTER UNITED midfielder Scott McTominay has penned a new five-year deal until 2025 as a reward for his fine performances this season.
The Red Devils also have the option of keeping the Scottish international – who has chipped in with five goals in 28 games this campaign – for a further 12-months.
Speaking to the club’s website of his new deal, a delighted McTominay said: “Whilst I understand that we all have so many other things to think about at the moment, I’m so happy to sign this contract and play a part in the future ahead for this team.
“All I have ever known is United and I hope that my passion for the club shows every time I go onto the pitch.
“I’ll continue to give everything for this club whenever I pull on the shirt.
“I want to thank the manager for the faith he has shown in me and everyone at the club that has helped me to get where I am today.
“I’m looking forward to finishing this season on a high and hopefully achieving our aims.”
McTominay made his debut for United against Arsenal towards the end of the 2016/17 season, and has since went on to appear in 75 games in all competitions.
Boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has stated that the player is vital part of his plans, as he revealed he is fully deserving of a new deal.
The Norwegian gaffer added: “Scott has done tremendously well since I joined and has been a vital part of our midfield.
@McTominay10 has committed his future to United!
