MATA GETS NEW MANCHESTER UNITED DEAL WITH OTHER OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO HIM

Manchester United have offered Juan Mata a new contract but the attacking midfielder has other options, according to his father.

Mata’s contract at Old Trafford is set to expire at the end of the season, the former Spain international having been at the club since 2014.

The 30-year-old has won the Europa League, FA Cup and EFL Cup at United but has only started 13 Premier League games this term.

Mata’s father says a new deal is on the table for his son, who played for Chelsea before joining United.

Pep Guardiola confirmed last week he made an attempt to sign Mata from Valencia when he was in charge of Barcelona.

But the player’s father confirmed Mata would not join Guardiola at United’s rivals Manchester City, nor would he sign for Liverpool.

Mata himself, who has been linked with moving to Barca on a free transfer, has opted not to give any update on the status of contract talks with United.
