Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has signed a new two-year contract.
The Norwegian forward, 33, has been sidelined for the best part of three seasons and is currently recovering from a broken cheekbone.
But a United statement said: "Manchester United is delighted to announce it has reached agreement with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
"The deal will see Ole stay at the club until June 2008."
Manchester United have not made it clear publicly but it is felt the contract offered to Solskjaer was a pay-as-you-play deal.
Solskjaer is a hugely popular figure at the club following his goal that won the 1999 European Cup for United and has battled his way back from two serious knee injuries.
Manager Sir Alex Ferguson said on the club's website: "I am delighted that Ole has signed a new two-year deal.
"It reflects our hope that he would return to full play after his recent cheek injury.
"It will take Ole to 35 and gives him the opportunity to develop his coaching experience. We also foresee him having a key role as an ambassador for the club in the future."
