Manchester United are uncertain whether to offer Luke Shaw a new contract, according to reports in the British media. The defender's current deal expires at the end of the season, with the club planning to open negotiations with him next year.
The hierarchy at the 20-time English champions wants to ensure the full-back truly warrants his place in the squad. Red Devils manager Michael Carrick remains an admirer of the 31-year-old's qualities and would prefer to have him as his first-choice left-back.
The main stumbling block remains Shaw's reliability in terms of fitness. Having already missed matches this campaign, United are hesitant to commit to him long term given his persistent injury issues. That makes the remainder of the season pivotal for both the club and the player. Shaw has been at Old Trafford since 2014 following his transfer from Southampton.
