Manchester United are reportedly weighing up a potential summer swoop for Newcastle United goalkeeper Nick Pope. The 33-year-old has been a reliable presence for the Magpies since joining from Burnley and he has been zeroed by the Old Trafford hierarchy to provide competition to an inconsistent Andre Onana.
Manchester United have been handed a huge boost in their pursuit of Botafogo keeper John Victor after Andre Onana suffered an injury ahead of pre-season.
Manchester United have been dealt a massive injury blow as Andre Onana has been ruled out of the club's pre-season with a hamstring problem. Early assessment of the player's condition suggests he could miss six to eight weeks of action, which means the goalkeeper is unlikely to return to the pitch before United's opening Premier League fixture against Arsenal on August 17.
Former Manchester United chief scout Mick Brown has claimed that the Red Devils consider Emiliano Martinez to be a major upgrade on Andre Onana. United are reportedly planning to offload Onana for a cut-price deal as they prioritise the signing of Martinez from Aston Villa. The Villans are ready to part ways with the World Cup-winning Argentine this summer.
Manchester United are considering a move for Botafogo’s standout goalkeeper John Victor as they prepare for changes between the posts at Old Trafford. Football Insider have revealed that the Premier League giants have been monitoring the 29-year-old for an extended period, with his performances at the ongoing FIFA Club World Cup reigniting their interest.
