Saul Niguez has committed his future to Atletico Madrid by signing a new five-year deal.

The homegrown 20-year-old midfielder, who has been linked with Manchester United, has enjoyed a big breakthrough season at the Vicente Calderon after spending last term on loan at Rayo Vallecano.

Niguez has scored four goals in 32 appearances for Atletico this season and is now committed to the club until 2020.

Speaking at a press conference, Niguez said: "For me it means a lot to wear this shirt. I've been here for 12 years and the club have treated me very well. People have taken care of me from day one.

"For me, wearing this shirt and playing is the most beautiful thing there is."
