Park Signs New Contract

Ji-sung Park has signed a new contract which will see the South Korean stay at Old Trafford until at least the end of the 2012/13 season.

Park, 30, signed from PSV Eindhoven in the summer of 2005. Since then, he has made 177 appearances, scoring 24 goals. He has won the FIFA Club World Cup, the UEFA Champions League, four Premier League titles and three League Cup winners’ medals.

Sir Alex Ferguson said: “Ji has been an important player for us for a number of years now. He has great ability and energy and in recent seasons has added the knack of scoring important goals in big games. He is a popular member of the squad and his experience at domestic and international level is invaluable for the younger players.”

Ji-sung Park said: "I have enjoyed every minute of my time at United. I’m delighted to be part of the Club during this latest stage in its history – with another exciting young team being built. I’m looking forward to playing my part in keeping United at the top of the game."
