Centre back Tuanzebe set to sign new contract at Manchester United

Man utd news updates live:
Axel Tuanzebe is expected to sign a new contract at Manchester United today.

The centre back enjoyed an impressive season-loan long at Aston Villa, helping them gain promotion to the Premier League, and Dean Smith is keen to take him back to Villa Park.



However, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to give Tuanzebe his chance to claim a place in Manchester United's first team and will take the 21-year old on the club's pre season tour this Sunday to see how he shapes up.



Manchester United are keen on Leicester City's centre back Harry Maguire but he would prefer to join Manchester City.

Both Manchester clubs have yet to meet Leicester's £90million valuation though.



United fly to Australia on Sunday for pre-season friendlies against Perth Glory and Leeds United before heading to Asia for matches against Inter Milan and Tottenham.
