It is understood United have no plans to resume the talks which broke down on a new deal earlier this year – despite Simpson’s return to the first-team stage.
A United source said: “Danny will have to wait and see what happens in the window.
“The club has most players on long-term contracts and Danny is the exception to that.”
Alan Pardew: “He is under-rated by our fanbase, but his defensive work is important.
“Defensively, he can deal with a wide player.”
I think Pardew is "passing the buck" talking about United's fanbase, suggesting the Toon Army don't rate the defender.
Pardew, himself, said the player would be replaced in the summer transfer market ... and if the Toon boss had signed the two players he was after, Simpson wouldn't be at the club!
