Victor Lindelof (30), who signed his renewal at Manchester United in 2019 and is rumored to be leaving this summer market, may have to stay at Old Trafford until his contract expires in 2025, due to his tendency to get injured, according to the ‘Manchester Evening News’.
That the club extended the contract with the Swede was a step to ensure value in the event of a sale, but now the aforementioned media believe that it has gone in the opposite direction. “He is as often available as Luke Shaw and would undoubtedly be United’s sixth choice at centre-back if everyone else is available. People at the club suggest playing him on the left to give him a goal,” wrote them.
Lindelöf arrived at United in 2017 on a five-year contract, but he renewed it in 2019 after his agent, Hasan Cetinkaya, said FC Barcelona had shown an interest in the Swede, something the newspaper columnist considered which is “incredible” . “This could be the worst contract United have ever signed. United had a one-year option to tie Lindelöf to the club until 2022 and should see through Cetinkaya’s scheme,” they wrote.
