“I’m Looking Forward To A Long And Successful Career At Man Utd”

England Under 21 star Chris Smalling has agreed a contract extension with Manchester United.

The talented defender only signed from Fulham last year and made an impressive start to his United career, something that Red Devils boss Sir Alex Ferguson agrees with.

“I am delighted Chris has signed a new contract,” enthused the boss to ManUtd.com. “Chris has been outstanding since joining us from Fulham last year, he is an extremely talented young defender, he’s quick, strong and reads the game well, he is a great asset to the team.”

Smalling himself was quick to state his excitement at the contract extension and is looking forward to a long prosperous career with the reigning Barclays Champions.

“This is a great club and, in the short time I have been here, I have already achieved more than I could have ever expected to,” he told ManUtd.com. “I am looking forward to a long and successful career at Manchester United.”
