Updates from Italian Journalist on Man Utd Contract Talks
Man Utd wants Lindelof to sign a new deal soon, with discussions ongoing. They’re also in talks with Wan-Bissaka, aiming for a long-term agreement without triggering the contract extension option.
Similar to the strategy with Dalot, the club prefers rewarding players with fresh terms. Questions arise on whether Lindelof and Wan-Bissaka, with a combined weekly wage of £210,000, will extend their careers at Old Trafford.
“With Lindelof, 100%. They want Lindelof to be part of the project in the present and future, so I’m sure they will try to proceed as soon as possible.
At the moment, a new deal for Wan-Bissaka is still being discussed because they wanted to offer him a long-term contract and not just trigger the option.”
said the Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano.
