Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt have become the latest Manchester United players to commit their futures to the club by signing new contracts.

Scholes has agreed a six-year deal, while England team-mate Butt has signed a five-year deal until June 2006.

Butt's new deal ends speculation that he will be leaving Old Trafford because of the imminent arrival of Juan Sebastian Veron from Lazio.
