Man Utd keeping tabs on David de Gea's replacement?

Manchester United are reportedly keeping tabs on Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa ahead of a possible transfer approach.

  • David de Gea has been an undisputed goalkeeper for the Red Devils over the past decade, but his future is now uncertain.

    He has entered the final year of his £350,000-a-week deal, and the club are not keen on triggering the optional 12-month clause.

    They seem willing to get him off their wage bill, and this could coincide with the purchase of a highly-rated goalkeeper.

    Costa has recently become Portugal's number one with his strong displays, and the 23-year-old could be De Gea's replacement.

    According to A Bola, the Red Devils were keeping tabs on his progress during Porto's 4-1 win over Braga in the Primeira Liga.

    Aside from the shot-stopper, the club also had an eye on the talented centre-back David Carmo, who has been tipped for big things.

    Carmo has been a mainstay in the Porto line-up this campaign. He has stayed injury free since his move from rivals Braga.
