Victor Lindelof has dropped a new hint over his future at while on international duty with Sweden.

The 28-year-old centre-back has spent most of the season on the bench or out of the squad with favouring and .

Lindelof, who is under contact until the summer of 2024, has made just nine Premier League appearances this term.

Across United’s last nine top-flight games, Lindelof has started just once, which came in February’s victory over Leicester City.

He moved to Old Trafford from Portuguese club Benfica in 2017 and has made a total of 217 appearances for the Red Devils.

But he has grown frustrated with his lack of playing time, and while away on international duty with Sweden, he said on Thursday: ‘Obviously I want to play.

‘That’s why I play football because you want to play games.

‘Right now I am focusing on the national team and the rest of the season with the club. In the summer, we have to re-evaluate and see what’s best.’

Spanish club in the January transfer window – and he was also – but Ten Hag was keen to keep him as a back-up.

United may be willing to agree to a sale in the summer, though, when Lindelof will have just a year left on his contact and in order to raise funds for new signings.

Lindelof has mainly been used in the domestic cups and Europa League this season but even in those competitions he has found opportunities limited when United have reached the latter stages.

The Red Devils won the Carabao Cup in February, face Brighton in the semi-finals of the FA Cup and take on Spanish side Sevilla in the Europa League last eight.
