Manchester United set to extend Harry Amass's contract amid injury concerns

Summary

Manchester United plans to activate a one-year extension for defender Harry Amass, whose current deal ends next summer. This comes as the team faces injuries in their left-back position, with Luke Shaw missing three games and Patrick Dorgu struggling. Amass, the only specialist backup to Shaw, has made a brief appearance this season and may play a more significant role. The club aims to secure Amass's future and protect his value, with potential loan options available in January depending on other players' fitness.
