Manchester United number 8 is back on duty with his teammates at Carrington and has done it a few days after extending his contract with the Old Trafford club. On 13 July, in Perth, he will play the first pre-season friendly.
Juan Mata has returned to work. After a few weeks on holidays -in which he announced his renewal with Manchester United-, the Spanish international has shown up at the Carrington facility to begin training with his teammates.

Since Sunday 12 May, the day on which ManU finished the Premier League 2018/19, Juan has been away from the competitive activity. While he rested, the negotiations for his continuity with the Red Devils did not stop. Finally, on 19 June, Mata´s renewal was confirmed for two seasons (plus an optional one-year extension). Excellent news for both the player and the Old Trafford club, with which he has played 218 games (45 goals and 37 assists) and has won four titles.
