Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has secured his future with the club, signing a new contract that will keep him at Old Trafford until 2023.
De Gea, 28, has made 367 appearances for United since joining from Atletico Madrid in June 2011 for £18.9m.
“Now my future is fixed, all I want is to help this team achieve what I believe we can and win trophies again, together,” said the Spaniard.
De Gea has been a key player for United, helping the team win the Premier League title in 2012-13, the FA Cup in 2015-16, the League Cup and the Europa League in 2016-17.
Despite being linked with a move to Real Madrid in recent seasons, De Gea has chosen to stay with United, who made an improved offer in July.
“The opportunity to continue my career at Manchester United is a genuine honour,” said De Gea, who has the option to extend the contract for a further season.
United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer welcomed De Gea's commitment, saying: “I am delighted that David has committed his long-term future to the club.
“Over recent years, David has proved himself to be the best in the world and a vital part of our plans as we look to take Manchester United back to where it belongs.”
