Manchester United is pleased to announce that Ryan Giggs has
today extended his contract for a further season until the end of
June 2009.
Ryan has 18 major titles to his name including 9 Premier League
titles, 4 FA Cups, 2 League Cups and 1 European Cup. He made his
United debut at Old Trafford on 2nd March 1991 against Everton and
has played 727 matches to date - making him second only to Sir
Bobby Charlton (759) in most appearances for the Club - and scored
141 goals.
Sir Alex Ferguson said: I am absolutely delighted that Ryan has
signed for a further season. Ryan Giggs epitomises the word
loyalty, he signed here as a 14-year old school boy and is still
with the club 20 years on. Apart from his playing ability he has a
fantastic demeanour and is a great role model to the younger
players. I am sure he will be at the Club for a long time to
come.
Ryan Giggs said: I am delighted to have signed for a further
season. I am enjoying football more than ever and I hope to carry
on playing football for Manchester United for as long as I can. I
would like to thank Sir Alex, the fans and everyone at the Club for
the great support I have received over the years.
