Manchester United are ready to give midfielder Nemanja Matic a new contract according to a report from British news outlet Manchester Evening News.
The Serbian national team midfielder's current deal with the Premier League outfit is due to expire at the end of this season and as a result several clubs have shown an interest in signing him on a free transfer, Inter included.
Inter have in fact been linked with a move for the former Chelsea player for some time but they now look set to miss out with it understood that new terms have already been agreed.
Matic joined the Red Devils from Chelsea on a three year deal in the Summer of 2017 and has since went on to represent the 20 time English champions 109 times across all competitions.
The 31-year-old struggled to get into the team on a regular basis early on in the season, mainly due to injury but he has become a regular starter in recent months. He has made 22 appearances this term in which he has scored one goal and tallied two assists.

He protects the Back four very well, United should keep him for next season and look to sign his replacement

I don't think it's a good decision to keep Matic at the club,don't get me wrong he has done well this season but we need a player like Ruben Neves in addition to Fred and Mctominay.We are surely not going to sign a CM if we are extending his contract.
He has done well in absence of Pogba .

What?? Scott Mctominay is quite good defensively,he wins every duel and is more mobile than Matic
firstly; Nobody wins every every duel. secony; Scott is not a natural DMF he wanders alot. And Ruben Neves is a good passer of the ball but no so good tackle wise. We need a player like Ndidi to allow fred roam and give Bruno freedom. And Matic is doing that quite well atm.

Is better to still have him in the squad. He has been better since he arrived from injury

Make sure he is tied down to a new deal. His experience will be much needed in the team. Man Utd shuld not make that mistake of letting Matic Leave

yes but experience is required
Yeah but we also need a CM.With Bruno,Maguire,Fred and Mctominay emerging as leader we may not miss Matic that much.

He deserves the contract. It is important to have an experienced veteran behind fred, mctominay and fernandes who only have 4,5 season between them in the EPL.
