Denmark goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard has signed a new four-year contract with Manchester United, the Premier League runners-up confirmed on Friday. The 28-year-old had become Sir Alex Ferguson\'s first choice until he suffered a serious ankle injury in January, but he has since returned to full fitness and will be part of the squad that heads on a pre-season tour to Scandinavia this weekend. \"Anders is still relatively young for a goalkeeper, he has come on leaps and bounds since joining us last year,\" said Ferguson. \"There is healthy competition in the goalkeeping department which is always good for the team, albeit a headache for me. \"I am delighted he has signed a new contract and also delighted to see that he has clearly returned from the summer break in good shape after the disappointment of suffering an injury last season.\" Lindegaard added: \"I\'m very pleased to have signed a new contract. \"I\'m glad and proud that the manager has shown the confidence he has in me by giving me a new deal. \"There is nowhere in the world I would rather be than right here.\"
