Serbian Midfielder Nemanja Matic is reported to have signed a new contract with Manchester United .It is a long term contract that will keep the defensive midfielder at United till 2023.This is a good move by the club considering he has played a big role in their victories more so after the restart. He was signed in 2017 from Chelsea, under Jose Mourinho’s management and his contract was supposed to run out by 2021.
Matic, who was injured before the break, is now back in good shape and top form and has reclaimed his position in the first eleven. The position was being held by Fred and Scott Mctominay who also proved to be quite prolific in holding that midfield.Now that he is back, he has been a constant starter and has very good chemistry with Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes.
This contract extension means he might stay with the Red Devils until he is in his mid-30s.The Serbian is definitely part of Ole Gunnar’s club rebuilt plan.We now wait for an official statement by the club to announce his contract extenson.
