Lindelof commits future to United

Victor Lindelof has signed a new long-term contract with Manchester United, keeping him at the club until at least June 2024. There is an option to extend for a further year.

Victor, 25, joined United in 2017 and has made 74 appearances so far. The Sweden international has represented his country on 31 occasions.

Victor Lindelof said: “Since the day I arrived at United it has felt like home. I have grown significantly both as a player and as a person in the last two years and for that I am grateful to everyone at the club for their help and support. I love playing football and my aim now is to help the team to win trophies and repay the fans for their unrivalled support.

“I know that everyone at the club shares this vision and will give everything to get Manchester United back to where it belongs.

”I’m still young and know I can improve further but with the help of the boss and his coaching staff, I believe that only good things are ahead for this great club.”

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said: “Victor has established himself here and has become a very important part of our team. He brings calmness on the pitch and I can see that he is determined to help this club and to be successful here.

“I’m extremely happy that he has committed his future to Manchester United. We’re all looking forward to working together to deliver the success and get United back to where we know the club belongs.”

Anyway, playing good in Italy does not means he is suitable for EPL.
Look at Darmian......

Had watched his game on several occasions. Can be quite erratic too (i.e. consistency issue)

[moscowblue]

for me i think Maguire is a very good buy

Man Utd XI: Romero, Dalot, Tuanzebe, Jones, Rojo, Matic, Fred, Chong, Gomes, Greenwood, Rashford.

Subs: Grant, Maguire, Young, Garner, Mata, McTominay, Lingard.

Greenwood scores the winner, 3 points

The youngsters really needed such games.

If they cannot perform against Astana, imagine getting a game in the EPL

After the game Ole said it was the right decision to let Lukaku go.
That being the case, isn't he confirming to Woody that no need to go to transfer market?
This had been my greatest apprehension about Ole. Every time after a victory, he will make such statements about this or that player.
Yes, credit to him to acknowledge them, but just feel he don't use them too much to allow them to grow.
We also know that Chong is a growing talent, but yesterday, he was a let down and probably so since he has so little exposure to first team game.

can see that the youngsters need plenty of games under their wings

playing for the 1st team and the reserve team is a completed different cup of tea.

Chong, in the reserves playing like a Bale, in real 1st team games, he performed badly.

Maybe too scare to make mistakes?
