Pereira signs new United contract

Manchester United is delighted to announce that Joel Pereira has signed a new contract which will keep him at the club until June 2021, with the option to extend for a further year.

Pereira, 21, joined the club in July 2012 after a successful trial spell in the Academy. The Portuguese goalkeeper made his debut for the first team in January 2017, when he came off the bench to replace Sergio Romero, in the FA Cup fourth round match against Wigan Athletic at Old Trafford. He went on to make his full debut in the Premier League against Crystal Palace in May.
