Michael Carrick has signed an extension to his contract with Manchester United.

The midfielder has agreed a deal that will take him up to June 2015 with the option of a further year.

He told the club website:  "It is great to extend my contract at this great club. I am really enjoying my football. The club has gone through a few changes and working under David Moyes has been fantastic. I have won many trophies in my years playing here and I am looking forward to achieving more in the future."

The 32-year-old is currently out injured with an Achilles problem.

The England man is unlikely to return until next month and could miss some of the busy festive period.
