Man Utd defender Lindelof: I signed new deal without looking at it

Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof admits he paid little attention to the new contract he was signing in September.

Sweden international Lindelof agreed a new deal at Old Trafford until at least 2024 four months ago, which saw him more than double his salary from £60,000 per week to around £150,000 per week.

He told United's official podcast: "When they offered me a new contract it was very, very easy for me. I never really looked at [the contract]. I just took up the pen and signed it.

"I'm very happy here and I want to be here for many more years to come and I know that I can become a better player here.

"I know the club can help me and I want to stay here for more years and hopefully we can win some trophies as well. That's my main goal."
