Manchester United are reportedly set to extend the contracts of five players in the coming months to avoid them leaving for nothing next summer.
The contracts of Marcus Rashford, David de Gea, Luke Shaw, Diogo Dalot and Fred are all due to expire in June but United retain the option to extend each of the deals by a further year, which they intend to activate. Manchester Evening News report that the extensions will all be finalised before the end of the January transfer window.
An extension for Rashford in particular will be welcomed by United fans. The England star has enjoyed a resurgence in form since the appointment of Erik ten Hag. Rashford was linked with a transfer to Paris Saint-Germain in the summer though it never looked likely he would leave Old Trafford.
