David Ornstein provides update on Manchester United move for Lewis Hall
David Ornstein provides update on Manchester United move for Lewis HallManchester United are not expected to sign Lewis Hall from Newcastle this summer, despite interest in the defender.Hall is a player of interest to Manchester United who are seeking a long-term replacement for Luke Shaw at left-back. Shaw has entered the final 12 months of his deal at Old Trafford, while the Red Devils want increased competition ahead of their Champions League return, amid Shaws history of fitness issues.However, a move for Hall looks unlikely, according to David Ornstein. The Athletics transfer insider said he does not expect the move to happen, as Newcastle look to hold on to a leading asset. The Magpies have endured a summer of upheaval with head coach Eddie Howe stepping down, and both Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali leaving St James Park. Club captain Bruno Guimaraes is also nearing a 75m transfer to Arsenal.As a result, Ornstein expects Newcastle to retain Hall, with no financial pressure to sell. He said he expects Newcastle to try and tie the 21-year-old down to a new long-term deal. Halls current contract runs until 2029.I dont expect [him] to be coming to Manchester United, Ornstein said.Theres clearly some interest, but Newcastle will be determined to keep a hold of him, probably even more so following the departure of Eddie Howe, and lets see that they would even like to time down to a new contractRead Rashford says farewell to Barcelona after Manchester United returnSee Also Every major change announced in FPL for 2026/27
