Manchester United's stance on Lisandro Martínez's contract renewal

Fabrizio Romano has revealed Manchester United's stance on the future of their Argentine defender Lisandro Martínez, whose contract with the club runs until the summer of 2027, with an option to extend for an additional year.

Romano explained that Manchester United have a clause allowing them to extend Lisandro Martínez's contract until 2028, which is why the club feels calm about the situation, especially since the player is not currently in advanced negotiations with any other club.

TEAMtalk has reported that Manchester United are confident in Lisandro Martínez and intend to negotiate with his agent in the coming months regarding his contract, despite his struggles with injuries in recent times.

The same source indicated that the club is also planning for life after Lisandro Martínez and Harry Maguire, with Jarrad Branthwaite among the potential options, while the Argentine defender could receive a new contract if he maintains his fitness and has an outstanding season.
