Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed Ryan Giggs has had his contract extended for another season, with a possibility the Welsh wizard could continue beyond that. "I spoke to Ryan a few days ago. He is happy to have another year and that is good news," Fergie told MUTV. "You can see his fitness. It is incredible.
"He could do another year, who knows, another two years, because his fitness is so good.
"I never expected him to be here so long but as the years went on there were improvements in terms of sports science and fitness, and Ryan is very much into yoga too.
"That gives you a better chance of course. But Ryan has also been prepared to make sacrifices and be a really good professional."
The former Wales international has been playing on season-long contracts for a number of years now.
"I am quite happy still playing at the moment and enjoying my football as much as ever," the 37 year old said. "I said if I was still enjoying myself and still getting picked I would carry on."
Giggs is bidding to win a record 12th league title this season to go alongside his two European Cups, all won under Ferguson.
"It is good to hear praise from the manager," said Giggs. "He would be the first one to tell me if I was not playing well or my form wasn't good.
"We talk a lot more and we are a lot more honest with each other.
"He tells me when I am not going to play and gives me a little bit more notice now.
"It is a great relationship and one that has been a big part of why I am still playing."
