Ashley Young: Manchester United defender signs new one-year deal at Old Trafford
Manchester United defender Ashley Young has signed a new one-year deal at Old Trafford, talkSPORT understands.Young, 33, joined the Red Devils in 2011 from Aston Villa and has won the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League in his seven-and-a-half years there.1

Ashley Young will remain at Old Trafford until 2020 at least

Talks had been ongoing between player and club since November and other teams from the Premier League and abroad were reportedly interested in Young.But the full-back, who turns 34 in July, has opted to extend his stay at Old Trafford and will remain there until 2020 at least.He is an integral part of United’s team on and off the pitch and is capable of playing midfield when required, having been initially bought as a winger. Young is also valued as a leader in the dressing room who underlines to his team-mates the standards expected at the club.Talking about his future in December, he said: “I feel as fit as when I was 21 years old. As long as my legs can keep taking me up and down the pitch, I’d love to stay here.”An official announcement is expected in the coming days as the paperwork is signed off.Young has started all but two of United’s matches since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s arrival as caretaker manager and skippered the side to a 1-0 win at Leicester on Sunday.“Ashley’s wearing the armband, yes, because Antonio’s struggled with fitness as well, in and out,” Solskjaer said last month of United’s captaincy structure with Antonio Valencia regularly absent.“But Antonio’s still the club captain, but Ash is wearing the armband when he’s playing.“I’ve never been a fan of ‘you’re this and you’re that’. Once in a while it’s to give, say David (De Gea) was captain one of these games when Ash didn’t play.”
