OFFICIAL: Martial signs new contract with Man Utd until 2024
The Frenchman has put pen to paper on a
fresh long-term deal at Old Trafford, which
will see him remain at the club until 2024
Manchester United winger Anthony Martial
has signed a new five-year contract with
the club on deadline day, after months of
negotiations and transfer speculation.
The Frenchman rejected an extension
offer back in October last year, amid
widespread reports he was unhappy with
his situation at the club under former boss
Jose Mourinho.
His previous deal was due to expire at the
end of the 2018-19 campaign, but United
triggered a one-year extension and
continued talks over a more permanent
arrangement.
Martial has contributed ten goals and one
assist in 25 appearances across all
competitions for the Red Devils this term
and he is one of the players to have
directly benefitted from the arrival of
caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
After embarking on a nine-match
unbeaten streak under the Norwegian,
Martial has decided to pledge his long-
term future to the club, in a major boost
for the team ahead of a crucial period of
fixtures.
Speaking after the announcement was
made on Thursday, Martial stated: "I am
loving my time at this club. From the day I
joined I have been made to feel part of the
United family and I have been incredibly
humbled and overwhelmed by the warmth
and love of our fans, who continue to
amaze me with their support.
