Rumors abound that the future of Manchester United's two stalwarts, Lindelof and Scott McTominay, hangs in the balance, yet coach Eric ten Hagar's determination to keep his men has not wavered. With the arrival of Lisandro Martinez, the 28-year-old's position in the team has subtly changed and his Premier League appearances have plummeted to nine. Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan are increasingly interested in Lindelof, who has just 18 months left on his contract with United. He himself has said that he will review his path at the club as the season winds down. According to the Manchester media, Ten Hagar firmly believes in Lindelof's value and is keen to keep him. However, if Lindelof chooses to stay, he may only be able to appear as a substitute at Old Trafford given Martinez and Vara's dominance in the pecking order. As for McTominay, his starting spot is similarly under attack this season, with new signings Casemiro and Eriksen adding to the competition. United's interest in seeking new midfielders in the transfer market has sparked speculation that the Scotland international is on his way out. However, both Ten Hag and the club have no intention of selling McTominay, with the young talent also seen as an integral part of the squad.
