Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has signed a new contract that runs until June 2027.
The Portugal midfielder has been a key figure for the Red Devils since his arrival at Old Trafford in January 2020, scoring 79 goals in his 234 appearances.
His new deal, which includes an option for a further year, comes after speculation at the end of last season that he may leave the club this summer.
Fernandes said: “Everybody knows the passion I have for Manchester United. I understand the responsibility and significance of wearing this shirt, and the levels of dedication and desire required to represent this incredible club.
“I have had so many special moments here already; hearing my name sung from the Stretford End, scoring a hat-trick against Leeds, leading the team out at Old Trafford on European nights and lifting trophies at Wembley.
“But I wouldn’t have signed this contract if I didn’t believe that my best moments in a United shirt are still to come.
“From my discussions with the football leadership and manager, it is clear how determined everyone is to fight for major trophies in the years ahead. I can see how positive the future is going to be and I am relishing leading this team forward.”
Fernandes’ new deal is a further boost to Erik ten Hag’s side following the summer arrivals of Leny Yoro, Joshua Zirkzee, Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui as they look to build on last season’s FA Cup win and improve on a dismal eight-placed finish in the Premier League.
