Wilson Signs New Four-year Deal At Manchester United

James Wilson has signed a new four-year deal at Manchester United after manager Louis van Gaal told the teenage striker he would have to wait until December for a decision on whether he should go out on loan.

The Dutchman said earlier this month he planned to allow the 19-year-old to move to another club in order to gain some experience.

Wilson, who has not played in the league for the first team since the end of last season, was not part of the squad for Wednesday's 3-0 win over Ipswich in the Capital One Cup, but van Gaal said he has 'doubts' about whether it would be worthwhile loaning the player to a Championship club.

For that reason he is set to wait for another two months before making a decision on where Wilson will spend the rest of the campaign.

The United youth product has made 18 appearances for the club and scored four goals since his debut against Hull in May 2014, when he struck twice in a 3-1 victory.

Van Gaal said at his press conference before Saturday's match with Sunderland: "I think he needs to play but Manchester United's interests are always higher than individual interests, so I have doubts to let him go.

"And maybe we have to wait until December that we know how it is with our club, (if) we are succeeding in the Champions League, the Capital One Cup, because maybe he shall receive minutes off me because I have to rotate.

"You have seen what I have done against Ipswich Town. It can be done also in the other matches, so I have talked with him and I think that we wait until December."
