NEW DEAL FOR SCOTT MCTOMINAY
Manchester United is delighted to announce that Scott McTominay has signed a new contract which will keep him at the club until June 2021, with the option to extend for a further year.
McTominay, 20, is a product of the club’s Academy system and has been associated with the club since the age of five. The Lancaster-born player made his first-team debut away to Arsenal at the end of last season. Scott made his debut in the Champions League in Wednesday night’s match against Benfica in Portugal.
Scott McTominay said: "I have grown up at this great club and it has always been a big part of my life. I attended the club’s development centre in Preston from the age of five and have gone on to progress from there.
"To make my debut at the end of last season was a dream come true, and I would like to thank the manager for the faith that he has shown in me. I was absolutely delighted when the manager promoted me to the first-team squad and I am looking forward to continuing my journey with this fantastic team."
José Mourinho said: "I am delighted Scott has signed a new contract, he is one of our young players that has gone from strength to strength. He made his Premier League debut at the end of last season and made his Champions League debut this season. I had no hesitation in promoting Scott to the first-team squad last month as we have total belief in him."
