Manchester United have confirmed that winger Anthony Martial has signed a new long-term contract at the club.

The 23-year-old had put pen to paper on a five-and-a-half-year deal which will keep him at Old Trafford until 2024.

Martial became the world's most expensive teenager when he arrived from Monaco in 2015.

The Frenchman's original contract was due to expire this summer, but the club triggered a one-year extension clause in November.

Martial looked certain to leave the club in the summer after reports of a falling out with then manager Jose Mourinho, but he forced his way back into the Portuguese's first team plans and been a regular when fit since Mourinho was replaced by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

“I am loving my time at this club," Martial told the United website. "From the day I joined I have been made to feel part of the United family and I have been incredibly humbled and overwhelmed by the warmth and love of our fans, who continue to amaze me with their support.

“I would like to thank Ole and his coaching staff for their belief in me and for helping me to take my game to the next level. This club is all about winning trophies and I am sure the next piece of silverware is not that far away.”
