Jonny Evans Pens One-Year Contract Extension With Man Utd

After almost a decade away playing for West Bromwich Albion and Leicester City, Evans returned to Old Trafford for a second spell last season.

The 36-year-old made 30 appearances in all competitions under Erik Ten Hag and played in the FA Cup final victory over Manchester City.

Evans will now stay for a further 12 months as United look to improve upon their eighth place finish in the Premier League next season.

"To play for this great club and feel the support from our incredible fans is always a privilege," Evans said in a statement. 

"Returning to the club last season was an honour, representing the team on the pitch alongside fantastic teammates under an excellent manager.

"Winning the FA Cup together was an unforgettable experience; I know we can challenge for more trophies in the season ahead."

During his first spell as a Manchester United player, Evans was part of three title-winning campaigns under Sir Alex Ferguson.
