Manchester United released list of five players to renew their contract at Old Trafford

According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United have yet to decide on the futures of five players linked with new contracts at Old Trafford.

According to the Manchester Evening News, Marcus Rashford, Fred, Luke Shaw, David de Gea, and Diogo Dalot are among five players who could sign new contracts.

However, Romano claims that nothing has progressed with these players and that the club will make a decision soon, with little pressure to do so because many of the players mentioned have the option of adding another year to their current contracts.

Romano adds that Rashford is one of Manchester United‘s priorities, which makes sense given the England international’s strong start to the season.

“None of these negotiations are close to being completed, yet,” Romano explained.

“Manchester United will decide in the coming months, while many of these players like Rashford (one of the priorities) have clauses included to extend the contract for a further year, so Erik ten Hag and the board will soon decide how to proceed.”

United fans will no doubt hope this can be resolved soon, even if there are perhaps some doubts about the likes of Shaw and Fred, who have been pretty inconsistent in recent times.
