The Red Devils have signed four big players this summer, but according to new rumors, they are in the process of adding a fourth player, who has also been connected to their city rivals.
All summer long, there has been a lot of conjecture about City’s goalkeeping situation, and Ederson appeared to be on the verge of leaving before his contract expired the next summer.
Galatasaray, a Turkish powerhouse, has been actively pursuing the Brazilian amid rumors that City was trying to sign Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma after his contract dispute.
Even though James Trafford started and maintained a clean sheet in his debut against Wolves last weekend, the club nevertheless paid £27 million to get him back.
However, journalist Sacha Tavolieri claimed City feel as though PSG’s demands for the Italian are too high and had turned their attentions to a cheaper alternative in Royal Antwerp’s 23-year-old goalkeeper Senne Lammens.
Fabrizio Romano’s Man United transfer update
Fabrizio Romano, on the other hand, claims that United is leading the battle to sign the Belgian international and is now in talks with Antwerp while also getting closer to reaching a personal agreement.
Since joining from Inter Milan, Andre Onana has shown himself to be unreliable in goal at Old Trafford, committing several costly mistakes during crucial games.
Altay Bayandir, a Turkey international who was responsible for the game’s lone goal, was selected for the United squad instead of him for the team’s 1-0 loss at Arsenal.
Ruben Amorim insisted that Onana was not dropped and was just excluded due to his lack of fitness.
“I didn’t drop Onana from the squad. I didn’t drop one of the other two from the squad,” Amorim said in his post-match press conference.
“It is not putting Andre Onana with just one week, without seeing a game, without time training.”
The Portuguese also said he was “happy with the three goalkeepers” – including 39-year-old back-up Tom Heaton.
Meanwhile, Ederson is in line to return to the City squad against Spurs on Saturday after missing the opening game through injury.
