Michael Carrick set for Man Utd extension

Experienced midfielder Michael Carrick looks set to further his stay at Manchester United, according to reports.

The 34-year-old had been recently linked with a move overseas with his current deal due to expire at the end of the season.

However, The Mirror understands that the England international will be offered with a one-year extension for his good showing in the league this season.

It is added that the new deal will have the option of taking up a coaching role with the Mancunian giants.

Carrick has been a regular for the Red Devils since his move from Tottenham Hotspur nearly a decade ago.
