Tying a player down to a new contract shows trust in the club in that player’s ability and potential.
And Manchester United have shown that they’re not just handing contracts out left, right and centre any longer.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof and Harry Maguire are just some of the players going into the final year of their contracts.
Typically, the club would have extended their deals.
It seems that’s no longer the case.
Only those who are deemed good enough for the club are getting renewed deals.
One of the players who has signed a new contract is Ethan Ennis.
The 19-year-old Runcorn born lad has officially put pen to paper on a two year deal to stay at Old Trafford.
Ennis used to play for arch-rivals Liverpool, but moved to Manchester United in 2019.
He made headlines at the time for becoming the first player in 57 years to make a direct switch from Liverpool to United.
And now the youngster has shared some comments on his new deal.
Sharing a picture on his Instagram page, Ennis has written a message of appreciation.
“Proud feeling for me and my family to sign a new deal at Manchester United,” Ennis writes.
“Looking forward to the season ahead. The hard work continues!”
Fellow United youngster Ethan Wheatley and Jack Fletcher have commented to congratulate the youngster on his deal.
So it seems that MUFC fans should expect to see and hear more about Ethan Ennis in the not-so-distant future.
