ELLA TOONE says she will never tire of pulling on a Red Devils shirt after agreeing to stay with Manchester United for the next four years.
The Euros-winning forward, 23, gave the WSL top three chasers a huge boost by signing a contract extension.
The new deal for the England ace, who netted seven times in 22 WSL games last term, will see her stay at the club until the end of the 2025-26 season.
It comes four days after Toone was named North West Women’s Footballer of the Year.
The forward, who swapped Man City for a 2018 United move said: “The club’s ambitions really match mine and there’s nowhere better for me to learn.
“To play for my childhood club I support is really special and I’ll never get tired of pulling on the red shirt.
“To now be able to do that for even longer is a proud moment for me and my family.”
Head coach Marc Skinner added: “Ella’s long-term commitment to Manchester United is yet more proof of the club’s continued investment in the future success of this team.
