Manchester United wants to take advantage of these last two weeks to make some signings and sell some players that are still pending, this with the intention of improving the squad, which has left many doubts at the beginning of the season, so the coach will have to start making several adjustments for the following matches. 


One of the most talked about positions has been the goalkeeper, since the arrival of André Onana there has been a lot of doubt about who will be the team's understudy, because as it is known by direct orders from Ten Hag, the board signed the Cameroonian goalkeeper this summer for 42 million euros, with the intention of making him the first choice goalkeeper and replacement for David de Gea. 


However, according to some reports the Dutch coach has said that he would like to sign a young goalkeeper to deputise for Onana and gain experience in the "not so important" games the club will play during the season, meaning that the current goalkeepers in the squad do not have a promising future at the club.


One of the players to leave recently was Matej Kovar, the Serbian-born goalkeeper joined Bayern Leverkusen in a transfer for approximately 9 million euros, but now there is speculation that another goalkeeper is set to leave in the next two weeks. 

Dean Henderson's fate


The England goalkeeper has been on the back foot over his future at Manchester United since the summer began, as he was initially rumoured to be joining Nottingham Forest, but with no real offer, negotiations stalled, however, Crystal Palace are now very interested in Dean Henderson and a bid is expected to be tabled in the next few days.
