Man Utd star has 'no chance' of transfer after winning Erik ten Hag over
Victor Lindelof has been denied a transfer to Eintracht Frankfurt after Erik ten Hag made it clear that he wants to keep him at Manchester United.
Lindelof, 28, emerged as a key player under Ten Hag in the latter stages of the season, deputising at centre-back after Lisandro Martinez suffered a serious metatarsal injury in April. The Swedish defender impressed alongside the likes of Raphael Varane and Luke Shaw, helping United secure a third-place finish in the Premier League and reach the FA Cup final.
Earlier in the campaign, it appeared as if Lindelof would be surplus to requirements once the summer transfer window opened, having dropped down to fifth-choice centre-back. Fast forward a few months and Ten Hag has been left impressed with the Sweden captain's late run of performances and wants to keep him at Old Trafford.
According to German publication BILD, Eintracht attempted to sign Lindelof back in January. Ten Hag moved to block his exit as the Red Devils continued to challenge in four competitions, but that didn't fully deter the interest coming from Deutsche Bank Park.
