There is a lot of talk about Luke Shaw and David De Gea extending their contracts with Manchester United. Both are important players for the team and have been the backbone of the team for many years. The matter of Luke Shaw's contract extension appears to be over.
At today's press conference, Erik ten Hag reacted to the reporter's statements that Luke Shaw extended his contract. The Dutchman does not have any details about such news, but he is happy if the matter is over. "If he signed, I don't know,"-Erik ten Hag said, as quoted by skysports.com "I haven't heard until now." Erik ten Hag confirmed that Murtough is doing a great job, but that he still hasn't heard from him regarding Luke Shaw.
"John (Murtough, the club's football director) didn't inform me until now, so I have to wait for that. If it's the truth, I would be really pleased. Definitely we want to keep him because he's a really important player for our team."
David de Gea
On the other hand, there are still no concrete details regarding David de Gea's new contract.
The Spaniard seems to be still thinking about his future, and the options of staying or leaving. It must be admitted that De Gea has been a key player for United for a long time. His departure would leave a great void. However, Erik ten Hag likes players who know how to play with the ball, and De Gea isn't so good at it.
The experienced goalkeeper spoke about his future, but did not reveal anything concrete;
"I’ve been here many, many years and enjoyed playing for this club in many, many games. It’s great to be here. It’s a massive club.
I love the club and I’m really happy here. It’s been the same over the years - a lot of noise about everything at the club - but as players, we just focus on the games. "
