Coach Sir Alex Ferguson revealed that in the near future he will seek to extend the contract with his defender Rio Ferdinand.
Recently, it was announced that he will try to acquire this player in the summer. According to Alex Ferguson's words, they will seek to extend the defender's contract even until 2009.
"We have spoken to the player's agent (Pini Zahavi)," Ferguson said to the English newspaper "The Guardian." "He is only 24, so he can play at the highest level for another 12-14 years. To me, he is a great player."
The defender is currently unable to play as he has been disqualified for 8 months for missing a drug test.
