GIGGS TO GET TWO YEARS?

From Sky:

'The Welsh star has been seeking a two-year extension, but the club were only prepared to offer him a 12-month deal because of his age. However, such has been Giggs's form this term, United's board seem ready to relent and hand the 31-year-old the further two years he desires.

The wideman has produced a series of scintillating displays this season, and was a crucial factor in the stunning 4-2 win over Arsenal at Highbury last Tuesday.

If he is granted the two-year extension, as expected, it will take him to within a few months of his 34th birthday, and seems likely to see him hang up his boots at the club where he has spent his entire career.'
