United legend pens one year contract extension

Ryan Giggs has signed a one-year contract extension with Manchester United.

The veteran Welshman had already indicated his wish to continue his career into a remarkable 21st season at Old Trafford and United have confirmed that the deal has been signed.

Giggs said: "All I've ever wanted to do is play for United and I've been lucky enough to do that for 20 years."

He added: "It is great to know I'm still contributing to the team's success and I feel I've got a lot to offer on and off the pitch.

"This is an exciting time to be involved with so many good young players coming through."
