Jones pens new Manchester United deal

Manchester United defender Phil Jones has penned a new deal at Old Trafford, according to Sky Sports.

The 23 year old moved to Manchester United in the summer of 2011, and has so far racked up one hundred and twenty-eight appearances for the club, scoring six goals.

Prior to his move to Manchester, Preston-born Jones played forty times for Blackburn Rovers while he won the Premier League title in his second season with the Red Devils.

Internationally, Jones has been capped seventeen times for England, with one of those appearances coming at last summer’s World Cup finals in Brazil while he was also part of Roy Hodgson’s Euro 2012 squad but didn’t play.

The news comes in the same week United lodged a bid for Real Madrid’s Spanish international defender Sergio Ramos, who has himself said that that he wants to swap the Bernabeu for Old Trafford this summer.
