Manchester United Defender Luke Shaw Agrees New Four-Year Contract
By Eze Dike
Manchester United defender Luke Shaw has agreed to a new four-year contract that will see him remain at Old Trafford till the summer of 2027.
Shaw’s contract was due to expire at the end of next season after the club triggered a 12-month extension in his deal in December. Shaw was dropped from the United side for five Premier League games after they began the season with defeats to Brighton and Brentford, but the 27-year-old has started every top-flight match since returning to the side for the 2-1 win at Everton in October.
Luke Shaw joined United from Southampton in the summer of 2014 as a teenager and has made 248 appearances for the club. The club will now focus on getting new contracts with goalkeeper David De Gea and talisman Marcus Rashford, who both have their contracts expiring come the end of the season.
Meanwhile, Blues boss Graham Potter has expressed his frustration at his side’s lack of concentration and cutting edge as they fell to a 2-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea have dropped into the bottom half of the Premier League table as the pressure continues to mount on manager Graham Potter after they suffered a 2-0 home defeat against Aston Villa on Saturday. Ollie Watkins and John McGinn fired the visitors to victory, lifting them above the Blues in the table, who have dropped to 11th.
“If you look at the stats of the game, apart from the most important stat, there’s a lot there that says we did well but ultimately the two boxes are the most important area and that’s where we have come up short”. GWG.ng quotes Graham Potter as telling Sky Sports.
