Aymeric Laporte agrees new Athletic Bilbao deal

Purported Man Utd target Aymeric Laporte has signed a new four year contract at Athletic Bilbao. The highly rated centre-back will stay with the Spanish side until 2019.

Manchester United have sent scouts on five occassions to catch the 21-year-old in action and will be very disappointed to hear that Laporte now has a 50 million euro release clause in his contract.

Laporte helped his club to 7th place in La Liga this season and has established himself as one of Spain's best young defensive prospects.
