Oblak could be a dream replacement for De Gea, who looks to be in decline despite enjoying a superb career at Old Trafford.

United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer often opted for Dean Henderson as first choice last season, though he didn’t impress too much either and ended up losing his place to De Gea for the Europa League final.

It seems MUFC are no closer to a final decision on De Gea, however, as ESPN report that the Spain international is in the dark over his situation.

Meanwhile, the Oblak transfer talk seems to be hotting up, so it may be that Man Utd are exploring how realistic completing that deal is before deciding on De Gea.
