'Manchester United Interest Didn't Affect Me' Newcastle United Star Lewis Hall Reveals Impact of Summer Transfer Distraction
Hall signed a five-year extension and said Newcastle’s ambitions made the deal an easy decision despite summer interest from Manchester United.
- Last week, 22-year-old defender Lewis Hall signed a new five-year contract extension with Newcastle, tying him to the club until 2031 despite summer speculation linking him to Manchester United.
- Hall credited Newcastle manager Matthias Jaissle, who joined from Al-Ahli in July, for convincing him to stay, calling the decision a "no-brainer" after seeing the German coach's clear ambitions.
- The defender has made 109 appearances for the Magpies and scored the decisive goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over Hull City, earning a recall to the England squad.
- Hall insisted the summer speculation regarding Manchester United did not affect him, stating, "I guess whenever you're linked to another team, you know that you're doing something right."
- The England international remains focused on achieving club ambitions, adding, "As long as we achieve these ambitions and achieve what we want to achieve, I'm sure I'll be here for a long time.
