Manchester United could be set to reward one of their star performers from the second half of the 2022-23 season with a new contract.

Victor Lindelof appeared to be heading toward the Old Trafford exit door at the start of the January transfer window, but the Swede has been a vital part of the Red Devils’ backline following the injury to Lisandro Martinez.

Man United set to offer Lindelof new deal

Erik ten Hag was reportedly impressed by Lindelof’s performances in the second half of the season after he started the final 12 matches of the league season.

The club look set to offload Harry Maguire in the summer, but the Swede’s performances could see the club trigger his 12-month extension, according to The Sun.

The Red Devils are still keen to add to their defensive line, with Napoli’s Kim Min-Jae remaining the club’s top choice. However, with Champions League action set to return to Old Trafford, ten Hag is keen to boast strength in depth in the defensive positions.
