are reportedly tracking two Championship goalkeepers with a view to bringing in domestic cover for . Current back-up Altay Bayindir has been unconvincing when called upon, and recruiting a new deputy is believed to be on United's to-do list for the summer transfer window.

Bayindir has not played a single game since completing a move from Fenerbahce in 2023. The Turkish international still has two years left to run on his contract, but this summer could be the point at which he parts ways with the Red Devils after two unsuccessful seasons.

According to , United chiefs are keeping a close eye on Preston North End stopper Freddie Woodman. The 28-year-old previously spent nearly a decade on the books at Newcastle United, making a handful of appearances and heading out on six loan spells before winding up at Deepdale in 2022.

Woodman will be out of contract this summer, opening up the chance of a free transfer for INEOS chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe. United are said to have compiled a list of goalkeeper targets and Woodman is on it, along with Blackburn Rovers star Aynsley Pears, who is under contract at Ewood Park for two more years.

Both have played regularly in the second tier this campaign and could be rewarded with a dream move to Old Trafford if United press ahead with plans to replace Bayindir.

Any transfer would likely involve Woodman and Pears accepting a bench-warmer role behind first-choice goalkeeper Onana. But the Cameroonian's inconsistency may inspire hope that they could one day get the chance to stake a claim for the No. 1 jersey.

United need to strengthen Ruben Amorim's squad this summer but PSR will once again force them to operate on a sensible budget. So the chance to get their hands on an experienced goalkeeper for free - as would be the case with Woodman - would be warmly welcomed by Ratcliffe.

The most costly aspect of United's summer recruitment drive could lie up top. The 20-time league winners are expected to bring in a new striker as Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee struggle to cope with the pressures of the English top flight.

The likes of Liam Delap, Viktor Gyokeres and Victor Osimhen are all in the frame, and each one of them would command a hefty transfer fee, which could force United chiefs to spot bargain opportunities when bolstering other positions.
