The Ivory Coast international was due to be out of contract
at the end of next season and there had been speculation he would leave Old
Trafford after struggling to hold down a regular place.
The 27-year-old has struggled with several injuries since
arriving from Villarreal in 2016, with Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof often
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s preferred centre-back pairing.
But he has delivered some of his best displays for United
this season, reaching 100 career appearances for the club.
“I’m very happy. This decision is something I didn’t have to
think about,” Bailly told United’s website on Monday.
“I love this club and I love playing for Manchester United.
I’m happy and so are my family, everything is good.
“Now the moment with my injury has passed and I’m fit and
feel good, and that’s it. A new contract is like a new challenge and I’m ready
for this.”
