Manchester United midfielders Paul Scholes and
Darren Fletcher have signed new contracts extending their
careers at Old Trafford until 2010, the Premier League champions
said on Friday.
"Paul is proof that if you look after yourself you can carry
on playing and be rewarded at a club of this size. He's (almost)
34 years old and that tells you the desire and ability he has to
stay at the top," manager Alex Ferguson told www.manutd.com.
Former England international Scholes has played almost 600
games for United, scoring 139 goals. Scotland's Fletcher, 24, is
another product of the United youth system.
