Altay Bayindir Manchester United 2025-26

Man Utd agree deal with Turkish giants to sell goalkeeper

Manchester United are reportedly ready to sanction the departure of Altay Bayindir this summer as the club continue their aggressive strategy to streamline the first-team squad. The Turkish international, who arrived at Old Trafford with high hopes of challenging for the number one spot, is set to return to his homeland after struggling to break into Michael Carrick’s starting XI. According to the latest reports coming out of Turkey, the Red Devils have reached a formal agreement with Super Lig giants Besiktas to offload the goalkeeper in the upcoming transfer window, marking a significant step in United's mission to reduce their bloated wage bill and recoup funds for future reinforcements.

Gary Neville has called on Manchester United to act quickly in the transfer market and sign a new goalkeeper, warning that the lack of a commanding No.1 is "undermining" Ruben Amorim’s early attempts to rebuild the team. With Andre Onana sidelined and Altay Bayindir producing another costly error in the defeat to Arsenal, Neville insists United need a strong personality in goal to steady the squad.
