Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw has said that he won’t extend his contract at Old Trafford until he feels he has earned it. The 23-year old said, “I want to prove to people that I deserve a contract. So I don’t think I’d sign a new deal right now.I really want to earn it. I don’t want it offered because maybe in the next year or so I’m a free agent, so maybe they might look to tie me down. I want the club to offer it to me because I deserve it.”

The left-back limped off the field during Manchester United’s International Champions Cup clash against AC Milan. Luke Shaw has not had the best of form under Jose Mourinho lately. Mourinho himself has been critical of his form and fitness. He said that leaving Old Trafford would have been the easy thing to do but he wants to stay and prove his critics wrong.

“It would be easy to give up, especially after the last year, where many things happened on and off the pitch,” said Shaw. “But I believe in myself and believe I’ve got what it takes to be a Manchester United player. That’s why I’m not giving up. I know the club believe in me. If they really wanted to, they could have cashed in on me before it got to the final year of my deal.”
