The 34 year old midfielder has spent a decade at Manchester United and was expected to leave this summer once his contract expires. However, club legend Paddy Crerand confirmed on MUTV (the club’s official channel) that Carrick has signed a new one year deal with Manchester United.
Crerand said: “Something that happened today that nobody has mentioned, and I’m delighted that he has signed another contract: Michael Carrick. He’s signed a contract for another year. There was a situation where it looked as if his contract was up at the end of this year and that was it, but from what I’m gathering he’s there for another year.
