Danny Welbeck has handed Man United a massive boost as he signalled his intention to stay at Man Utd, and sign a new five year contract. It is thought that next month the 20 year old England striker will sit down with club officials and discuss a £45,000-a-week deal for five years.
It is thought that United are giving Welbeck the deal to show their gratitude for the incredible form he has been in since he returned to United from a spell away on loan at Sunderland. Welbeck who enjoyed a good last season with Sunderland has 18 months currently left on his contract that currently grabs him £15,000 a week without bonuses. It was revealed in the summer how initial talks were held and they were thought to be trebling his wages whilst extending the young Englishman’s deal for a further five years.
United have been busy trying to tie down their exciting new youngsters with better deals. New deals are thought to be being offered to the likes of Smalling, Cleverley and Hernandez, as well as Welbeck. But finally United aim to lure the striker into a new deal with a final wage of £65,000 should he ultimately trigger appearance and goal targets.
Welbeck is expected to sit out Tuesday’s home Champions League match with Benfica because Alex Ferguson hunts for the win required to top the group and dodge the big name teams in the knockout stages.
Sir Alex Ferguson said: “That is probably the bonus out of it — you hope you do finish top. First of all there are certain teams there and that is one issue but the most important one is that second game is at Old Trafford and that is always an advantage.”
