Manchester United could make two arrivals, including a highly anticipated one, before the end of the summer transfer window.
The English club sold a number of players this summer, and let go of Spaniard David de Gea (32), who is now out of contract. In his place as number 1, the Red Devils have signed Andre Onana of Cameroon for an amount of 52.5 million euros. But that’s not all: the British team will sign a new goalkeeper in the coming hours.
Indeed, Altay Beydindar (25) is already in England to pass his medical before signing for Manchester United, according to revelations from Fabrizio Romano. The Turk, who plays in Fenerbahçe, will be transferred for 7 million euros. The Dutchman will replace five-selected international Dean Henderson in Erik ten Haag’s team. The 26-year-old Englishman is expected to join Crystal Palace this summer, leaving the number 2 spot vacant after Andre Onana, a former Interist and ajaide, is expected to leave.
