Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic has signed a new contract, committing him to the club until 2023.

On July 6, 2020, Manchester United announced that Matic had signed a new deal, which will keep him at the club until 2023.

Matic joined Manchester United from Chelsea in 2017 for £35 million and has since made 114 appearances for the Reds.

After losing his place in the team last season, Matic made a resurgence in form and reclaimed his spot, earning him a new contract.

"I am very happy that I will continue to be part of this great club," Matic said. "As a player, I still have a lot more to give and achieve in my career and to do that with Manchester United will be a huge honour."

"This is a really exciting team to be part of, we have a good balance of youth and experience within the squad and there is great comradery amongst the group," Matic added.

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised Matic's experience, professionalism, and leadership, saying: "I am delighted that Nemanja has signed a new contract, I know his experience, professionalism and leadership will be invaluable to this young talented group."
