Manchester United Offer New Deal To Promising Nigerian Defender, Dubbed The New Dani Alves
Published: June 09, 2017
The promising Nigerian defender Matthew Olosunde will remain at Manchester United if he accepts the club's offer of a new contract.
Olosunde and five players who represented the Red Devils last season have been tabled fresh terms, and negotiations are still ongoing.
The 19-year-old caught Manchester United coach Jose Mourinho's eye towards the end of the 2016-17 campaign, with the Portuguese gaffer naming him in the provisional squads for Premier League matches against Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur.
The right back thrived at United U23s last term, making eighteen outings in Premier League 2 and logging 1,163 minutes.
