Manchester United wants to replace the goalkeeper Andre Onana of the first team this summer this summer after the bad displays of the former Inter Milan star for the most of last season. It is unlikely that a considerable start of the preseason will improve his situation at Old Trafford.
Football Transfers has reported That Man United looks at a surprise transfer for the goalkeeper Stefan Ortega in Manchester City, who is expected to leave the Etihad Stadium in search of greener meadows this year.
A second-choice shot stopper for a large part of his term of office at the club, the signing of James Trafford is likely to replace Edererson Ortega as the backup, making the 32-year-old exiled to a third-kitchen roll under Pep Guardiola.
Ortega is in the last year of his contract with Man City, so he would be available for cheap, while his experience, in particular in the Premier League, will come in handy if he joins Manchester United with conversations that are already going on about a deal.
Ortega the United profile needs
Although Stefan has played Ortega in a secondary capacity for Manchester City, he has been with a good effect in the absence of Ederson in recent months and promises to be a worthy addition to the Manchester United team this summer.
He is very good at handing the ball, reading crosses and coming from De Lijn, while he is able to make composed short steps with the ball at his feet, in addition to finding teammates higher on the field with a decent amount of accuracy.
In a relatively young man United -side, his background to winning two Premier League titles and the Champions League with Man City will be vital and he could add to add that in a starting role at Old Trafford if he did indeed participate.
The signing of Stefan Ortega is also cheap, so the Red Devils do not have to lose Andre Onana, which can be used as a handy backup with Altay Bayindir instead if the Turkish eyes are a regular place elsewhere.
