Man Utd players delay new contract talks

Manchester United players are delaying decisions on new contracts over doubts about manager Erik ten Hag's future.

The Manchester Evening News says players are concerned about Ten Hag's position and are waiting on a decision before considering their own futures at Old Trafford.

Seven senior players' contracts expire this summer, with others entering their final year.

Ten Hag is yet to receive public backing from new co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

Saturday's draw with 2-2 sees United now 13 points behind fourth place Aston Villa.
