Shorter and heavily incentivised contracts have to be the way forward at Man United if they are to become a credible force again.

Dalot cost a prudent £19m in 2018 and his worth is at least double that, so he is not exempted. Imagine the outcry if United put a 'not for sale' tag on Mount or Rashford.READ MORE: United have made a key change with contracts to put players on trial Dalot, 25, has started in 43 of United's 47 games this season, wants to stay and his list of admirers has predictably dwindled since he signed a five-year contract last May. Aaron Wan-Bissaka, out of contract next year and an auxiliary left back of late, is the sellable asset at full back.
Victor Lindelof is another. He had not reached the halfway point of a maximum five-year deal and had just been part of the worst United defence in 40 years when Matt Judge negotiated a wage hike in 2019. This is the first time this century United have not negotiated an in-season contract renewal with a senior player. With the majority of the United squad effectively on trial, that should also apply to any incomings.
