Manchester United trigger extension to Andreas Pereira’s contract

The midfielder scored a wonder goal in this month’s 3-2 comeback win against Southampton and days later started the stunning 3-1 victory over Paris St Germain in the Champions League.

Pereira’s contract had been due to run out at the end of the 2018-19 season but Press Association Sport understands that United recently invoked the one-year extension clause built into the deal.

There has been widespread interest in the Brazilian but caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is a big fan of the midfielder, who he had no intention of allowing out on loan in January.

The extension allows United time to negotiate a new and improved deal with Pereira or sell for a fee this summer.
