Tahith Chong has signed a new contract to stay at Man Utd .

The 20-year-old has been courted by several of Europe's top clubs, with his contract due to expire at the end of the season.

Barcelona , Inter Milan and Juventus are all interested in signing Chong on a free transfer, but it seems he is now set to remain at Old Trafford.

United were confident of tying Chong down to fresh terms despite him holding talks with interested parties.

Chong's agent, Erkan Alkan of Stellar Group, said: "There was a lot of interest, we talked to big clubs, but Manchester United came up with a good plan for Tahith.

"He likes to stay with the club that brought him from the Netherlands.”

Chong was spotted with Inter chiefs as recently as January as rumours suggested he was ready to quit United this summer.

But he has now performed a dramatic u-turn, no doubt pleasing boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who was desperate to keep him.

Solskjaer has given Chong a chance to prove himself in the United first-team, handing him 10 appearances so far this season.

The Dutchman's form has been rewarded at international level, earning him call-ups to the Netherlands under-21 side.

According to reports, Chong has put pen to paper on a deal worth £30,000 per week.

Solskjaer said back in November: "There are players we wanna get signed, of course. And Tahith is a player we think is going to develop."

United are also in discussions to extend the contract of Angel Gomes.

Meanwhile Arsenal could reportedly swoop to sign United defender Chris Smalling in a £25million deal if Roma are unable to fund a move.

Smalling has impressed on loan at the Serie A club, but Roma are struggling to meet United's price tag.

Gazette dello Sport (via Express ) report that Tottenham have also expressed an interest in the 30-year-old.
