Manchester United defender Luke Shaw has signed a new four-year contract extension that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2027.
His contract was set to expire at the end of next season after the club triggered a 12-month extension in December, but the Englishman has now extended his stay at Old Trafford until June 30, 2027.
He has been an important member of Erik ten Hag’s squad this season, excelling at both left-back and centre-back under the Dutchman.
Shaw was benched for five Premier League games after United lost to Brighton and Brentford to start the season, but the 27-year-old has started every top-flight match since his return for the 2-1 win at Everton in October.
Speaking on his contract extension, Shaw said, “Nine years ago, I signed for this amazing club, and I’m thrilled to be extending my stay.
“I’ve grown immensely since coming to Manchester all those years ago, both as a person and as a player; I know what is needed to succeed at a club like this.
“We’re at the beginning of our journey under the manager and his coaching staff. We’ve been successful already this season, but we want much more. There’s a great opportunity to create something special here, and I’m going to give everything to be part of that.”
Shaw joined United from Southampton as a teenager in the summer of 2014 for a fee in excess of £30 million.
In his nine years at the club, he has made 249 appearances and won three major trophies: two League Cups and a Europa League.
