Nicky Butt is set to remain on Manchester United's academy staff next season.

The Daily Mail says Butt has emerged as the member of the Class of '92 whose position at Manchester United could be the most secure under the soon-to-be-confirmed Louis van Gaal regime.

The former United midfielder has forged a close working relationship with reserves coach Warren Joyce this season, with Butt acting as his assistant for the under-21 side and it is understood that Joyce is keen for the club to maintain that relationship next season.
