According to The Sun, Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is keen to hand defender Axel Tuanzebe a new contract and a chance to impress in pre-season when the players resume from their summer break.
The 21-year-old impressed on a season-long loan at Aston Villa, featuring in 28 Championship games and helping them to Premier League promotion.
The newly-promoted side would love to have him back temporarily or permanently for 2019-20, but they have to wait till Solskjaer makes a decision on his future.
Tuanzebe has just a year left on his current deal, and United aren’t ready to let him run down his contract and lose him for free.
