The versatile England international, who joined the Red Devils in 2011, has agreed a new contract that will keep him at Old Trafford until at least June 2019
Manchester United defender Phil Jones has agreed a new deal that will keep him with the club until 2019.
The England international - who arrived from Blackburn Rovers in 2011 - was due to see his contract at Old Trafford expire at the end of next season.
However, having played a regular role in Louis van Gaal's maiden campaign with the club last time out, Jones has put pen to paper on a new four-year deal.
"I am delighted to have signed a new deal," Jones told the club's official website.
"I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here so far and am looking forward to continuing my development as a player.
"This a great club to be part of and I cannot wait to start the new campaign. I would like to thank the manager, coaching staff and fans for their continued support."
"He is a talented footballer with great versatility and can play in a number of positions.
"Phil is a relatively young defender who is developing all the time. He missed some of last season due to injury but I was impressed by his professionalism and attitude during those periods."
Jones, 23, won the Premier League title with United during 2012-13 and has made 128 appearances for the club in all competitions.
