Manchester United have been linked with Newcastle United star Lewis Hall, but it appears that he is going nowhere this summer.
Hall is reportedly in talks with Newcastle over a new contract.
His current contract at St James’ Park does not expire until 2029, but the club are keen to tie him down to a new deal.
Hall has also been offered a role within the leadership team under new manager Matthias Jaissle.
This is a blow for Man United, who view the 21-year-old as the ideal long-term replacement for Luke Shaw.
The Red Devils focused on bolstering their midfield following Casemiro’s departure and Manuel Ugarte’s serious injury at the World Cup.
Signing a top left-back has also been a priority for the club’s chiefs. Tyrell Malacia has left on a free transfer, and Patrick Dorgu is expected to continue in a more attacking role.
Shaw was impressive last season, but he needs someone to share the workload this term.
Hall has been a consistent performer for Newcastle since joining the club in 2023. He has made 102 appearances across all competitions, weighing in with 10 goal contributions.
The Magpies have lost Sandro Tonali, Anthony Gordon and Bruno Guimaraes this summer. But they are determined to hold on to Hall, who is a vital part of their plans.
