Macheda will turn 18 in August and his agent, Giovanni Bia, believes United boss Sir Alex Ferguson will offer the youngster a long-term deal.
“When he’s 18 we’ll talk again,” Bia told Sky Italia.
“I think Manchester will ask us to sign a five-year deal and I think that would be logical because it makes no sense to lose a lad at 21. We haven’t talked about figures.”
