After more than a decade of wearing Manchester United, Luke Shaw is said to be considering leaving Old Trafford when the new season is near.
Luke Shaw consider breaking up Man United after 11 years of attachment
As revealed from The Sun, Luke Shaw is ready to listen to the offers from Saudi Arabia, in the context of the opportunity to play at Man United is increasingly narrowed. Despite two years in the contract, the 30 -year -old defender understood that he was no longer a priority choice under coach Ruben Amorim. The rise of Diogo Dalot, Patrick Dorgu and rookie Diego Leon made Shaw's position more and more wobbly.
During the debut, Diego Leon received compliments from Amorim: “He plays very well. Strong, fast learning and potential to become an excellent player.” The £ 3.3 million fee for the signature from Cerro Porteno seems to be a big bargain.

Shaw still participated in the match against Leeds and was filled with the tourist list in the US, where Man United will face West Ham this weekend. However, the possibility of him breaking up “Red Devils” in the summer is still very clear, otherwise it is likely that in January.
Injury has become the biggest enemy in Shaw's career. Since joining Man United in 2014, he had to sit for nearly 5 years because of physical problems. Traumatic trauma in 2015 was only one of 28 times he had to be friends with the hospital bed. Last season, Shaw pointed to the field only 7 matches in the Premier League because of knee, calf and muscle injuries.
However, with a salary of £ 150,000 per week, coach Amorim did not rush to liquidate the British defender. He appreciated the versatility of Shaw, who used to play well in the center -back position in the Europa League final against Tottenham in May, the tournament he used to be crowned Man United in 2017.
Not only is a seasoned veteran with 388 matches for the club and the national team, Luke Shaw is also one of the few players who can convey the experience and the Red Devils spirit to the younger generation.
If coming to Saudi Arabia, Shaw will extend the list of fog stars looking for new opportunities in the Middle East. Earlier, Jordan Henderson, Ivan Toney and Steven Gerrard (as the coach) tried his luck in this rising tournament, which gathered a series of famous names such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane or Karim Benzema.
In a frank sharing after the worst season of Man United history when they ranked 15th, Shaw once said on the BBC Sport: “I am very sorry for fans for what they suffered this season. We were not good enough and I only apologized. It was a great pain. We, the players, must ask myself whether I deserve Man United.
The current position, the achieved results, all unacceptable to a club that used to be a symbol of world football. After matches like before Tottenham, we need to look back at ourselves. Ruben certainly planned and knew what to do to bring the club back to the peak. ”
Although the future has not been decided, the prospect of breaking up Man United is increasingly clear to Luke Shaw, who used to be a symbol of belief, energy and resilience in the Old Trafford corridor.
