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.’
