Wes Brown has spoken of his delight at agreeing terms on a new
four-year contract which will keep him at the club until at least
June 2012.
The 28-year-old defender, who joined as a trainee in July 1996,
has been one of United's most consistent performers this season and
he is looking forward to playing his part in the Reds' quest for
silverware over the coming years.
“Manchester United is a fantastic club and I am delighted to
have signed a new deal," said Brown in a club statement.
"To be part of a team I have supported all my life is a great
honour.
"I can see this team winning many trophies in the coming seasons
and it will be great to share in that success."
Sir Alex Ferguson is equally pleased to see Brown extend his
stay with the Reds after an impressive campaign at right-back in
Gary Neville's absence.
“I am delighted Wes has signed a new contract, he has grown up
at this club and is an integral part of the squad," declared the
United boss.
"He has done a great job during Gary’s absence and has been a
major factor in our outstanding defensive performance."
Brown is one of three United players who have agreed new deals.
Sir Alex confirmed on Friday that Rio Ferdinand and Michael Carrick
will also extend their stays at the club.
