MANCHESTER UNITED RESOLVING THE CONTRACT ISSUES EARLY TO AVOID FUTURE COMPLICATIONS
One of these two players has to remain a Manchester United player before the start of the 2020/21 season. The Red Devils clearly have a dilemma which the football club, unintentionally, put themselves into after Manchester United decided to withhold decision makings regarding two of the clubs' important players in Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba with both midfielders current contracts coming to an end at the end of the current 2020 calendar year.
The good news for Manchester United is that the Red Devils still have a one-year contract extension clause left to be triggered in both existing contracts for Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic which the club has graciously accepted to activated in the case of the Serbian midfielder as of March 28, 2020. As a result, Matic is now set to remain a Manchester United calendar year.
The new offer of a one-year contract extension for Nemanja Matic falls in line with the understanding that Manchester United will be losing massive capital in the upcoming major, global, economic stumble scheduled to happen in the summer of 2020. With Manchester United expected to lack mass capital to make big moves whenever the summer transfer window kicks off and running, the idea of resigning important players such as Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba at Manchester United for an extra year or two years in Paul Pogba`s case starts to make sense for Manchester United.

With Manchester United expected to lack mass capital to make big moves whenever the summer transfer window kicks off and running, the idea of resigning important players such as Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba at Manchester United for an extra year or two years in Paul Pogba`s case starts to make sense for Manchester United.
At the moment, the verdict on Paul Pogba’s future appears to be that the French midfielder is staying at Manchester United even beyond the upcoming 2020 summer transfer window. Before the recent COVID-19 outbreak, the French midfielder was highly understood to be working on a move away from Manchester United with Spanish side Real Madrid, Italian side Juventus and french side Paris St German appeared to be the top three sides financially strong enough to price the French man away from Old Trafford this upcoming summer.
However, as a result of the recent global health crises and the deflating affect the battle against the virus will have on some countries in Europe, securing the services of a player on such a massive price tag away from Old Trafford this summer might have turned into a task too heavy to accomplish even for a majority of other elite clubs around Europe besides Manchester United.at this point in time.
Will Manchester United have both Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba wearing the Red and Black jersey of Manchester United further in the future? At the moment, major signs point to a resounding yes. Manchester United is yet to offer the french man a new contract with the Red Devils expected to rather trigger the one-year extension clause existing in Paul Pogba`s current contract which will leave the french midfielder little to no choice but to remain at Old Trafford for at least one more season.
This will provide Manchester United time to iron out a new three-year contract possibly or decide on the best offer on the table during the 2021 summer window. Major conversations between highly revered sports stations continue to surface as expected with the main topic of conversation being Paul Pogba’s uncertain future as a footballer.
The biggest expectations so far regarding Paul Pogbas future is that should the current global health crises continue to hinder the European transfer market from opening, players such as Paul Pogba who were expected to push for a move away from their current clubs will be left with little to no choice but to remain with their current clubs at least for another season.
Right now, the strategy for Manchester United appears to be triggering the one year clause of each Manchester United player who is at the last stage of his contract in other to allow Manchester United a one-year opportunity to iron out each players contract situation and decide if an agreement can be reached between Manchester United and the player in regards to a brand new contract.
By triggering the one-year contract extension Manchester United buy themselves time to secure the services of a new quality midfielder by the end of the 2021 summer transfer window.
The plan for Manchester United in regards to contract situations and any future expenditure expected to be made by the Red Devils in the upcoming transfer window appears to be pretty straight forward, as a result of the financial loss expected to be recorded for the Red Devils during the 2020 summer season, Manchester United will look to balance out their checkbooks by allowing any secondary player currently at the club to leave when the 2020 summer transfer window eventually opens up in hopes of gathering enough money from any player sold during the summer to keep the club steady financially until the 20/21 season kicks off.
Hopefully in a period when the global health and economic status have stabilized and football can return to normal. Tickets and merchandise can be sold, football played in Old Trafford once again and basically, fans can be allowed to fill the stadium once again. In general, should football return to normal in the next couple of months, Manchester United will be able to build a steady financial base in terms of generating back profits expected to be lost through debts and taxes in the next coming months.
With the services of Nemanja Matic all secured for another year, the expectation from Old Trafford is that Manchester United will trigger the one-year extension clause on Paul Pogba’s current contract to allow the Red Devils retain the services of the French midfielder for at least another year while Manchester United try to recover from the current financial disaster. At the moment, the reality for Manchester United is that should the club decide to allow their ace player leave this summer, the Red Devil will ultimately receive a double loss because not only will the financial value received from Paul Pogba’s exit be minimal at best but Manchester United might fail to sign a rep
In retrospect, Manchester United will most likely also be unable to afford any replacement for the French midfielder should Paul Pogba leave the club this summer as a result of increased price tagged on players with the intention from the various club being to recover as much money as each club has lost during the current crises. Will Paul Pogba leave Manchester United this summer? at the moment the signs suggest no.
Manchester United are aware that not only will the Red Devils struggle and ultimately fail to attract the right level for any high offer received for Paul Pogba this summer, Manchester United might also not be able to afford any replacement for the french midfielder due to the high inflation rate expected to be present around Europe this summer.
The Red Devils are strongly expected to offer Paul Pogba a new contract next summer but the status of the contract, whether there is even going to be a new contract, continues to be undetermined.
