Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has told Andreas Pereira he's a required player for next season.

The midfielder has struggled for minutes since the blockbuster arrival of Bruno Fernandes in the January transfer window.

But Het Belang van Limburg says that United have told Pereira's camp that a move away is not an option and that he must instead stay to fight for his place.

The 24-year-old has been linked with Santos in Brazil, while clubs from La Liga are interested in securing his signature too.

But it appears United will be keeping hold of the playmaker, who has made two substitute appearances since the restart following the coronavirus crisis.
