Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is 'keen on' being reunited with former Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana at Old Trafford this forthcoming summer. That is according to a report by La Gazzetta dello Sport, as cited by ManUtd News, who claim that Ten Hag is keen to bolster his goalkeeping department with the now-Inter Milan shot-stopper. The goalkeeping situation is up for debate at Old Trafford ahead of next season amid doubts about David de Gea's suitability to continue as United's No.1. Despite winning the
Premier League Golden Glove, doubts have been regularly cast about the Spaniard's suitability with the ball at his feet and Ten Hag recently admitted that he cannot guarantee De Gea will remain his first-choice option between the sticks . He has, nevertheless, kept 25 clean sheets in all competitions this season. READ MORE: Erik ten Hag holds calls with striker Rasmus Hojlund Onana, who turned 27 in April, only signed for Inter last summer, joining the
Champions League finalists on a free transfer. He has enjoyed a brilliant maiden campaign for the club, keeping 19 clean sheets in 40 appearances. But it is claimed that Inter are 'open' to the idea of cashing in on the Cameroon international this summer if the price is right. It is claimed that the Italian side are looking for a fee somewhere in the region of €40-€50million. Onana made a total of 145 appearances under Ten Hag at Ajax, meaning he is no stranger to the United manager. Furthermore, it is claimed that Inter have 'identified' Empoli goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario as a possible replacement for Onana. Meanwhile, United are said to have 'earmarked' Bayern Munich defender Benjamin Pavard as an option to strengthen their centre-back options. That is according to a report by L'Equipe , who claim that the Reds have identified him as a 'leading candidate' to bolster that area of their defence. United are likely to target a new centre-back this summer if either Victor Lindelof or Harry Maguire move on, meaning Pavard would tick that particular box. The
France international can operate as both a right-back and a centre-back, meaning he would be a versatile addition to the squad. Pavard is out of contract at Bayern next year and reportedly has no interest in extending his stay at the German giants. That is said to have put a plethora of European clubs on red alert to the prospect of him becoming available.
Barcelona are said to be in the running alongside United. The defender has made 43 appearances for Bayern this term, netting a respectable seven goals in the process.
