UNITED: Michael Carrick is the latest United player to commit his future to the Reds after signing a new four-year contract.

Michael Carrick is the latest United player to commit his future to the Reds after signing a new four-year contract.

/noticias.info/ The deal will keep the 27-year-old midfielder at Old Trafford until at least June 2012, which follows hot on the heels of Rio Ferdinand signing a new five-year contract earlier this week.

Carrick cites United's trophy-winning potential as a major motivation to remain at the club until he is in his thirties.

“This is a fantastic club and it is a pleasure to be part of this great squad," he told ManUtd.com.

"I believe this team will be together for many years to come and to win back to back titles in my first two seasons at the Club is a dream come true."

Carrick has become an integral part of squad and crucial to the way the Reds play. Sir Alex Ferguson was therefore understandably pleased to tie-up a new deal for the playmaking midfielder.

“I am delighted Michael has signed a new contract," said the Reds boss. "Michael has been outstanding since joining us from Tottenham Hotspur in 2006 and its great to know he will be a part of this squad for many years to come.” notas_de_prensa_archivo
