Red Devil’s Eye New Goalie? : Andriy Lunin
Manchester United’s Goalkeeping situation is a concern for them. Onana’s inconsistent form, particularly in the Champions league has made the club look for new options.
Andriy Lunin, is a 25 year old Goalkeeper at Real Madrid. He has impressed football fans with his top level performances in the Champions League. However, he is now a backup goalkeeper at Real Madrid as Thibaut Courtois is the first choice goalkeeper at Madrid. Although Madrid want to extend lunin’s contract as they want to have a top backup option in their team as well.
Meanwhile, Lunin’s Agent has said, “Andriy Lunin has confirmed his intention to remain at Real Madrid for the upcoming season… he feels comfortable in Madrid.” However, reports suggest that this situation will change if a top club offers him a starting role.

Author’s Opinion
Manchester United are making some key changes to the club this summer. The reduction in scouting network, improvement in training ground and stadium, new signings are important part of their plans. Also, they are thinking about their goalkeeper situation. Onana has been their first choice keeper, he was signed when Ten Hag was incharge. However, he has failed to impress the fans and make place in the team. He has been inconsistent and club is planning to let him leave this summer.
As a result, Manchester United remain interested to sign a new goalkeeper this season. Andriy Lunin and Diogo Costa are among the player’s they have shortlisted. Sources say that the Price for Lunin is €15 million but Madrid will ask for more as they don’t want him to leave.
The Red Devils will have to bargain and give a good offer to Madrid and Lunin to get this deal done. The Situation will become clear in the next few days.
It would be interesting to see what happens in next days of Transfer Market. Will Lunin Leave Madrid this summer? Will Manchester United and Rasmus part ways? Who will be New Manchester United Goalkeeper? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
