Erik ten Hag reveals Man Utd contract talks over surprise signing
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has confirmed the club are in talks over extending veteran centre-back Jonny Evans' contract with the club. 35-year-old Evans, a graduate of the United academy, left Leicester City at the start of the summer following their relegation to the Championship and was initially training with his boyhood side to preserve his fitness before a short-term contract was handed out. Evans was involved in United's pre-season and has remained with the club ever since. His short-term deal is due to expire at the end of the month but Ten Hag revealed Evans could stay for the rest of the season. "We are in talks," Ten Hag confirmed. "For this month he is under contract but we are talking [about extending it'." Asked if he wants to keep Evans, the boss insisted: "Of course, otherwise we would not be talking."
