Darren Fletcher hopes to follow in the footsteps of Manchester United legends Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville and Paul Scholes and become a one-club man.

The Scotland captain, who at times early on in his career looked like he would have to move away from Old Trafford in order to get regular first-team action, is now firmly established in Sir Alex Ferguson's squad and regarded as one of the most influential midfielders in the Premier League.

And, having shared a dressing room with legendary United stalwarts for so long, Fletcher, whose current contract runs until 2012, has his eye on a career-long stay at Old Trafford.

There is something very special about staying at one club for your whole career - the likes of Gary, Ryan and Paul are all legends at Manchester United and to get anywhere close to that would be a real achievement.

"I can't ever imagine being anywhere else," he told the club's official website. "There is nowhere better than Manchester United and if I can play my whole career at this club I will be a very happy man.

"Everything about the club - the fans, the facilities and the structure - is fantastic and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else," added the 26-year-old, who has over 250 appearances for the club under his belt.
