Veteran defender Jonny Evans has signed a new one-year deal with Manchester United.

The 36-year-old Northern Irishman made 30 appearances for United last season after rejoining the club on a one-year deal from Leicester City.

Evans progressed through the club's academy to the senior side in his first spell before permanently moving to West Brom and then Leicester.

He made a substitute appearance for Erik ten Hag's side in last season's FA Cup final victory over rivals Manchester City.

"I am delighted to have extended my contract at Manchester United for another season," said Evans.

"To play for this great club and feel the support from our incredible fans is always a privilege.

"Returning to the club last season was an honour; representing the team on the pitch alongside fantastic team-mates under an excellent manager.

"Winning the FA Cup together was an unforgettable experience; I know we can challenge for more trophies in the season ahead."

United begin their pre-season campaign on Monday with a trip to Norway to face Rosenborg.

They then play Rangers at Murrayfield on 20 July before flying to the United States for a three-match tour that includes games against Arsenal and Liverpool.
