The Brazil captain arrived from Real Madrid in 2022 and has so far played 146 games for the club, scoring 21 goals.

"I will carry Manchester United with me throughout my entire life," said the midfielder, a five-time Champions League winner at Real.

"From the first day that I walked out at this beautiful stadium, I felt the passion of Old Trafford and the love that I now share with our supporters for this special club.

"It is not time to say goodbye --  there are many more memories to create during the next four months."
