Definitely, the departure of David de Gea forced Manchester United to change everything in the goalkeeper position. Indeed, while André Onana has been recruited to replace the Spanish captain, the leaders of the Red Devils would also like to change lining. While Dean Henderson is considered number 2 in the hierarchy, the English goalkeeper could also pack up in the coming days and the residents of Old Trafford would not hold him back. For now, Crystal Palace would be on his trail according to The Athletic.
The latter have already targeted and ensured the arrival of Dean Henderson’s replacement. It would be Altay Bayindir, the goalkeeper of Fenerbahce, as confirmed on Tuesday The Athletic. While the Istanbul club are close to getting their hands on Dominik Livakovic according to several sources, the 25-year-old is Manchester United’s preferred option. However, while they are worried about a back problem from Bayindir, the leaders of the Mancunian club will first give him a medical examination in Greece in the next few hours according to the English media. If the medical tests prove conclusive, they will recruit him for only five million euros. Otherwise, they will turn to other options.
