Manchester United unlikely to retain Luke Shaw beyond current season
Summary

Manchester United plans no contract extension for Luke Shaw, whose current deal expires in June 2027. The defender has been a mainstay in the starting lineup under manager Michael Carrick, appearing in every match he was available last season. Shaw, now the longest-serving player in the squad, could become a free agent at 31 years old. His departure aligns with INEOS's intentions for a defensive overhaul next summer. Reports indicate Shaw's future remains uncertain as the team faces challenges in the left-back position.
