Manchester United winger Juan Manuel Mata has made it clear that he would be perfectly happy to remain at Old Trafford in years to come.
The Spaniard will be out of contract at the end of the season, but the Red Devils have the option to extend the deal for a further year.
Speaking about his plans for the future, Mata has revealed that he has no intention of leaving Old Trafford any time soon.
“Why not? I’m 29 and hopefully I can play football for some more years. It would be great to play until I’m 40 like Ryan Giggs. But that’s still a bit far, still 11 years,” Mata told ESPN FC.
“I’m happy here. The club is massive, the support we have is massive. I’ve been settled down in the city since year one. Now it’s my fourth year in Manchester.
“You never know what can happen in football and in life. But my feeling now is that I’m happy here and I wouldn’t have any problem continuing here for more time.”
Mata joined Man Utd from Chelsea back in January 2014 and has since managed 37 goals and 27 assists in 159 competitive appearances.
