The midfielder will remain at Old Trafford until 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The 23-year-old had entered the final year of his contract and was able to negotiate a departure from United as a free agent.<\/p>\n<p>However, Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer informed Pereira that he has the potential to become a key member of his squad. A more regularly playing role has become available following the departures of Ander Herrera and Marouane Fellaini over the past few months.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Andreas is another player brought through our Academy that understands what it means to play for Manchester United,&#8221; said the United boss to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.standard.co.uk\/sport\/football\/manchesterunited\/andreas-pereira-signs-new-fouryear-contract-with-man-utd-with-option-of-a-further-year-a4183341.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Evening Standard<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe came from another country but quickly understood the values of playing for this club. He doesn\u2019t take it for granted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAndreas has become an important member of the squad with his energy and hard work in midfield.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe works non-stop every day in training, has a great character and knows what he has to do to continue his development here. We all look forward to working with him in the season ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pereira joined United&#8217;s academy in 2011-12 and has the option of a further 12 months.<\/p>\n<h2>Solskjaer Persuades Defensive Axel Tuanzebe<\/h2>\n<p>Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has also retained the services of Tuanzebe until 2022.<\/p>\n<p>The defender is set to join Solskjaer&#8217;s squad on tour before a decision regarding his immediate future is made.<\/p>\n<p>21-year-old Tuanzebe made a number of impressive performances while featuring on-loan in <a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonfootball.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/clubs\/aston-villa-club-news-analysis-fixtures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Aston Villa<\/a>&#8216;s promotion-winning campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Solskjaer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.standard.co.uk\/sport\/football\/manchesterunited\/andreas-pereira-signs-new-fouryear-contract-with-man-utd-with-option-of-a-further-year-a4183341.html\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">said:<\/a> \u201cAxel is a great example of the type of player that has come through the Manchester United system.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe&#8217;s humble, hard-working, talented and a team player.
