Man Utd eyeing new goalkeeper to replace Andre Onana?

15 December 2024 - 21:44

Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Botafogo goalkeeper John Victor at the turn of the year.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Calum McFarlane confims double Chelsea injury boost
  • United have had Andre Onana as an undisputed starter in goal and he has not missed a single minute in the Premier League since his arrival.

    However, his position may not be guaranteed in future. Journalist Alan Nixon claims that United are weighing up a move for Botafogo's Victor.

    The Brazilian was in sensational form for Botafogo last term. He helped them win the Serie A and Copa Libertadores titles with fantastic displays.

    He was named the best player in Brazil as a result and his agent has confirmed that he would like to play in the Premier League in future.

    United are prepared to part ways with back-up keeper Altay Bayindir in January and Victor could be signed as his replacement for £20m.

    Victor has strong reflexes with tremendous ball-playing ability. He is seen as someone, who could seriously compete with Onana for the spot.
