Erik ten Hag U-turn could change Manchester United star's transfer plans after first-team demand

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Victor Lindelof's form could convince Erik ten Hag to keep him at Manchester United with the defender set to assess his future at the end of the season.

The Swedish international has found himself behind Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez for most of the season. However, injury to the latter has seen Lindelof regain his place ahead of Harry Maguire.

Lindelof has started United's last nine games and they have kept five clean sheets in that time. His performances have been impressive and he may have given Ten Hag something to consider ahead of the summer transfer window.

He previously said he will sit down with the club for talks about his future when the season ends after admitting he wants to 'play every game'. "Of course like every player, you want to play every game and obviously I haven't done that this season," Lindelof said in March. "But like I always say when I come here [international duty], it's a pleasure to be here and I'm always happy to represent my country. "I'm really looking forward to the games that we have and I spoke to Janne [Sweden's manager] before to say I was really looking forward to coming here and to perform, and to be on the pitch with the guys again. "Like I said, I want to play, that's why I play football, I want to play games, but I haven't thought about that [transfer away], right now I'm just focussing on the national team and then of course, the rest of the season with the club.
