Erik ten Hag is determined to sort out his long-term goalkeeper situation this summer and Man United have now made contact with a second keeper to bring in alongside their new number one Andre Onana.
Writing in his exclusive CaughtOffside column, Fabrizio Romano has said that United are still working with Inter on the final details of the Onana transfer which relates to the structure of the add-ons. Once that is agreed upon, the deal will then move towards completion and Ten Hag will have his man.
The Inter star was Ten Hag’s top target for the role as he is perfect for the way he wants to play at Old Trafford and with David de Gea leaving the club recently, the Man United boss now wants to bring in another shot-stopper to backup his new number one.
For that role, Fabrizio Romano says that Man United are speaking to Japanese club Urawa Red Diamonds about their highly-rated goalkeeper Zion Suzuki.
“Man United are still working with Inter on the final details for the Andre Onana transfer which relates to the structure of the add-ons. Once agreed, the deal will be completed. Onana will be Man United’s number one but the club are looking to sign a second goalkeeper this summer,” Romano wrote about Onana in his latest column.
The transfer journalist then went on to say: “I told you a few days ago that Man United are speaking to Japanese club Urawa Red Diamonds about their highly-rated goalkeeper Zion Suzuki. I can tell you guys that contact has now been made between Man United and the player’s side. The club have told the player’s representatives that they are interested in signing the player.
“At the moment, official negotiations have not yet begun but Man United are interested. “
Great business,but we need to take a big fight for Glazer’s family till they sold the club to Jassim.bcus things are worst slowly now for man utd.we are no longer a competive for preamier league and champions league and other big titles for long time..it’s enought,they dont care about the qualities of the team.we want Jassim to back in our glory manchester utd fc..and
Man utd need to be consdering in sellings some players like Harry Maguire bcus we are tired of scoring own goal and flat defence,for the world record defender 80ml.he did not deliver for the past 3 season no improvement yet.collect any better bid on him and let him go quitly…. Elenga,Martial,Van de beek & others Prefered them quickly,to procced the business.bcus there is no any other founds to buy quality players again after the arrival of Mount and Onana…
and we need a new goal machine striker,with another technique defender,along with standard Casemiro helper Amrabat …
Matej Kovar was given a chance against Leeds in the recent pre season friendly. By all accounts he made a good impression, whilst playing out from the back as EtH wishes. Save the money and give him a chance as a number 2 goal keeper
Grab Zion Suzuki ASAP so that he &matej kovar can be mentored by Tom Heaton in order not to buy him for a huge sum in future with the money realized from impending Henderson’s sale.
