Aside from 30-year-old Shaw, United may look to keep youngster Harry Amass, 19, after the summer, so long as heās fully recovered from the lengthy injury setback that ended his half-season loan spell with Norwich City this year.
Patrick Dorgu occupied the position on numerous occasions last term after signing in a £30 million switch from Lecce. However, in the most recent appearances he made before his hamstring layoff, he had enjoyed his most impressive form when playing further forward as a winger.
Hall, 21, is tied to St. Jamesā Park until June 2029.
While he is a self-proclaimed boyhood Newcastle fan, he actually came through the ranks at Chelsea before signing for the Magpies two years ago.
He has since made a real name for himself on Tyneside ā so much so that his stellar form was acknowledged by then-England manager Lee Carsley in November 2024, who opted to grant the defender his first two senior Three Lions caps.
Hall had to wait until this March before he was recalled to the setup under Thomas Tuchel, adding his third and fourth caps in friendlies against Uruguay and Japan.
It goes without saying that heāll be crossing his fingers and hoping heās done enough to warrant a place in Tuchelās World Cup selection this summer.
