Manchester United extend three contracts as Erik ten Hag opens up on Sir Jim Ratcliffe meeting

We are in the midst of the FA Cup third round weekend but Manchester United will have to wait until Monday to get their taste of the competition.

The Reds will make the short trip to 2013 winners Wigan Athletic next week as they aim to go one step further than last season. United were defeated in the showpiece final by Manchester City and while victory at Wembley Stadium would have been the icing on a good cake last season, this year's campaign is riding on the FA Cup.

While United are focusing on Monday's game, the transfer window remains in full swing and Erik ten Hag confirmed some contract news which takes away a few question marks over some players' futures during his pre-match press conference. Take a look at this and more below.

United manager Ten Hag has confirmed the club have extended the contracts of Victor Lindelof, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Hannibal Mejbri.

The trio were approaching the final six months of their deals but United triggered the one-year option in each contract to tie all of them to the club until 2025. The Manchester Evening News reported the contracts were due to be extended back in October.

The contracts of Raphael Varane and Anthony Martial have not been extended and the latter is expected to be released in the summer if he is not sold in the January transfer window.
