Manchester United's Spanish stars angry at being 'treated differently' to club's English players in contract talks
Spanish-speaking stars at Manchester United feel preferential treatment is being given to the club's English players — leaving Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with a problem of dressing-room harmony in the closing weeks of the season.
Spaniards David de Gea, Ander Herrera and Juan Mata and their representatives believe they are being treated differently as the club attempt to return to the 'home-based' strategy that made them successful under Sir Alex Ferguson.
Luke Shaw, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling and Ashley Young have all signed new contracts at Old Trafford this season but there has been no similar agreement with the Spanish contingent.
Though Mata and Herrera are popular members of the squad, the Spanish speakers have formed their own little clique at United.
In general, the club have failed to assimilate their Latin players over the long term, compared with Manchester City, for whom David Silva and Sergio Aguero have been instrumental over several years.
United want to promote academy and British players as part of the club's DNA, having had their fingers burnt in the transfer market under Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho. But as they attempt to strike the right balance, there is a risk it could put off overseas targets.
The aggrieved Spaniards have left Paul Pogba in a difficult position with a foot in each camp.
The French World Cup winner grew up as a trainee in Manchester, alongside English players such as Jesse Lingard, but has also established close friendships with the foreign legion.
Pogba is a primary transfer target of Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane but he is a key player United desperately do not want to lose.
