Ferdinand over the moon after signing new Man Utd deal

Rio Ferdinand took to Twitter to express his delight in signing a new contract with Manchester United.

The 34-year old centre-back has penned a one-year extension with the Premier League champions and was already looking forward to commencing his 12th campaign at Old Trafford.
