Luke Shaw will be looking for a strong finish to the 2025/26 campaign which has revitalised his Manchester United career.
This time last year, Luke Shaw was being linked with an exit from Manchester United and it looked as though his time at Old Trafford was coming to an end.
It is no secret that Shaw has had major injury problems during his time in Manchester, but Shaw has been transformed in 2025/26.
With five matches remaining this season, United are chasing Champions League qualification, and Shaw has a personal record of his own to pursue.
Luke Shaw chasing personal Man Utd record
Remarkably, any concerns over Shaw’s injury issues are starting to fade because the 30-year-old has started in every Premier League match for United this season.
With five games remaining in 2025/26, if Shaw starts all of those matches, it will be the first time in his 11-year United career that he has started every match.
Shaw’s dynamism in attack is returning, and he has been a key player on and off the pitch for the Red Devils this season.
The English defender has been one of the main beneficiaries of United playing just 40 matches this season, as he has been allowed extra time to rest and recover.
