Despite intense interest from PSG and Real Madrid, Manchester United are planning to extend the contract of Argentine defender Lisandro Martinez rather than sell him. Both European giants are preparing to make a move for the player in the near future, prompting Manchester United to accelerate contract discussions to retain him. Martinez's recent performances and crucial role in central defence have reinforced Manchester United's commitment to him. A well-placed club source indicated that Lisandro is a very valuable player for the team, and they have long-term plans for him, which they aim to realise by extending his contract.
