Juan Mata drops future hint ahead of Manchester United release

Juan Mata insists he remains '100 per cent' committed to playing football as he nears the end of his time at Manchester United. The Spanish midfielder is out of contract at the end of the season and the club has shown no sign of offering him a new deal.

Mata, who turns 34 later this month, has only featured five times for United this season and has remained a peripheral figure under interim manager Ralf Rangnick.

The uncertainty regarding United's next permanent manager makes a contract extension very unlikely for the former Chelsea playmaker, who joined the club eight years ago. Mata has won an FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League during his time at Old Trafford, but no league title.
