On Tuesday, "Sky Sports" announced that "Manchester United" took the opportunity to extend the contract with Andreas Pereira for another season. The 23-year-old Brazilian's contract would have expired after this season.
Having played in friendly matches this summer, A. Pereira had the chance to stay with the team and was not loaned out to other clubs, but playing time was given to him very rarely by Jose Mourinho.
The chance for the Brazilian to prove his worth came when the Manchester team was plagued by injuries. A. Pereira took advantage of this opportunity: he scored a great goal in the match against "Southampton", which helped the team secure an important victory, and was also a key figure in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final match.
The midfielder had been loaned out to other teams more often before. He spent two seasons in Spain, playing for "Granada" and "Valencia".
This season, A. Pereira played 14 matches for "Man Utd", scoring one goal.
