NEW YEAR GIFT: Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s contract at Manchester United has reportedly been extended by another year

After joining United from Crystal Palace in June 2019, the 26-year-old has played in 175 matches for the 20-time English champions, scoring twice in that time.

Since Erik ten Hag took over as manager at the beginning of last season, Wan-Bissaka has started all three of the team’s matches at right back, although he hasn’t always been the starter.

The former Eagles player has not been called up to the England national team yet, despite appearing three times for the Under-21 squad. This is mostly down to Gareth Southgate’s embarrassing wealth of right backs in recent years.

The Daily Mail reports that Wan-Bissaka’s option with Manchester United has been activated, tying him to the club until the conclusion of the 2024–25 season.

In September, there were initial conversations about an extension; however, these were shelved until Sir Jim Ratcliffe finished his minority ownership of the club.

United reportedly decided to extend the right-back’s contract by one year, keeping him from becoming a free agent like a large number of his teammates in the summer.

Wan-Bissaka, a defender for Manchester United, is reportedly set to begin pay negotiations with the club in an effort to increase his current £90,000 weekly wage.

Apparently, Victor Lindelof, a teammate of Wan Bissaka’s, has had his contract extended by the Red Devils. Lindelof is now recovering from an ιnjury he suffered in November.

Rumоr hаs it thаt Rаphаel Vаrаne’s cоntrаct extensiоn clаuse will gо untriggereԀ, even if UniteԀ аre hоping tо hоlԀ оn tо а few stаrting ԀefenԀers fоr the upcоming seаsоn.

The owners of Manchester United think the ex-Real Madrid player’s £350,000 weekly salary is too much for the club.

There have been rumors that the Frenchman and head coach Ten Hag have had a falling out, leading some to believe that the World Cup winner is being pressured to leave Old Trafford.

Instead of keeping his current salary for another year, United might offer Varane a substantial salary cut if he wants to remain with the club.

On Monday night, Man Utd will travel to Wigan Athletic for the FA Cup, and Wan-Bissaka is expected to start for the fourth match in a row, while Diogo Dalot will continue to step in for Luke Shaw at left back.
