Chong, who has been capped six times by Netherlands Under-21 made his senior debut for the Red Devils in January 2019 against Reading in the FA cup.
He was made a total of 16 appearances for the Manchester United first-team.
Chong won United’s coveted Denzil Haroun Reserve Team Player of the Year award in May 2019, a year after he claimed the Jimmy Murphy Young Player award.
Chong penned a new contract in March to keep him at United until June 2022.
“I’m at a club where, if you work hard, you get your opportunities,’’ Chong told Manchester United’s official website.
‘’It’s all about taking those opportunities as well. I think we’ve got a manager who believes in young players. It’s an exciting time at the moment.’’
Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said: “We are pleased with the progress Tahith has made since he stepped up from the Academy and are looking forward to continuing to develop his talent.
‘’He has great potential; given his age, ability and work-ethic, we can see that he has a bright future at Manchester United.”
