Sir Alex Ferguson believes that Ryan Giggs can play at Old Trafford for another year, despite turning 38 last month.
The Welshman is currently in his 22nd season with the Premier League champions and the club are looking to offer him another deal.
Giggs has been on a one-year rolling contract since hitting his thirties and has seen teammates Paul Scholes and Gary Neville retire. Ferguson has said that he sees no reason why the midfielder cannot stay for another year.
"I think Ryan can play another year," the Scot said.
"There is no evidence at this moment in time that his energy, stamina or speed are decreasing. In fact, it's exactly the same as it was the last two or three years. It's amazing.
"I know it's mid-season now and it all depends on what Ryan thinks about his future, too. He knows he can't go on forever, we know he can't go on forever, but he can play for another year."
Giggs extended his record of scoring in every Premier League campaign with his goal in Wednesday's 5-0 win at Fulham.
