The Neville brothers put pen to paper on new five-year deals over the weekend, which will keep them at Old Trafford until 2009.

Keane welcomed the news and believes it bodes well for the team's future.
"They have been incredible servants to the club,"

"It's good that they're going to be around to help to keep the age balance right as Gary is 29 and Phil is 27. We have signed a lot of young players in the past two or three years so you need people like me, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and the Nevilles, lads around the 30 mark in the team.”
