Marc Skinner has signed a two-year contract extension with Manchester United.

Skinner's current contract was due to expire at the end of this season, but he will stay on for another two years, with his new deal running through to June 2027 with the option for a further 12 months.

The 42-year-old took charge in 2021 and has overseen 119 games in all competitions, winning 77 of those. He has a 64.71% win rate.

Skinner also guided United to their first major honour, winning the FA Cup last year.

He had led them to the FA Cup final the previous year as well, and the Red Devils are set to face Manchester City in the final four of this season's competition on April 13.

In the Women's Super League, United average 2.08 points per game under Skinner, winning 53 of their 84 matches under him. They have scored 179 goals during his tenure and conceded 75.

"It has been an absolute privilege to serve as head coach for this fantastic football club for the past four years, and I am delighted to be extending my time in the role for at least a further two years," Skinner said.

"We are building a young, hungry team with the aim of challenging consistently for further trophies.

"There is still more hard work ahead, including this season, but the players and staff have already shown their determination to succeed, and I am looking forward to us taking the next steps in our journey together."

The Red Devils currently sit third in the WSL this season, level on points with second-placed Arsenal and six points behind leaders Chelsea with four games remaining.

They boast the best defence in the league, having conceded just nine goals this season, while they are on course to qualify for the Women's Champions League for the second time in their history, having finished second under Skinner in 2022-23.
