Ryan Giggs has signed a new one-year deal at Manchester United that commits him to the club until June 2011, beyond his 20th anniversary in the first team. The Welshman, voted 2009 BBC Sports Personality of the Year award last week, has won more medals than any other player in British football history.
“Ryan deserves a new contract and I am sure that he will play for another two years,” said manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
“His form is fantastic at the moment and he is playing some of his best football.”
Giggs, who has won 11 Premier League titles, two European Cups, four FA Cups and countless personal awards in a glittering career, is excited about the new deal.
“I am delighted that I have agreed one more year,” said the winger.
“I am enjoying my football more than ever and I am looking forward to hopefully winning more trophies with United.”
Just saw your comment on the Times website re Giggs deserving the Sports Personality of the Year award more than Jenson Button.
As a Liverpool fan….can I just say that….
I absolutely agree with you, Giggs has been a great player and deserves to be a Man U legend, Button was just in the right car at the right time.
Looking forward to Hamilton whipping Button next year.
Now, as a Liverpool fan I have to say that Gerrard deserved it more….hey, I can’t come on here and only say nice things about United…. ;O)
And so it begins… there’s one new player that won’t get signed.
