Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is reportedly planning to revamp the team’s goalkeeping department by signing two new goalkeepers this summer.
The move comes after underwhelming performances from current goalkeepers Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir.
Onana and Bayindir’s Struggles
Onana’s errors in the Europa League quarter-final against Lyon and Bayindir’s four-goal concession against Newcastle United have raised concerns about their reliability.

Amorim’s decision to leave Onana at home ahead of the second leg against Lyon suggests a lack of confidence in the goalkeeper.
Potential Signings
According to reports, Amorim is eyeing Aaron Ramsdale and Zion Suzuki as potential replacements.
Ramsdale’s relegation with Southampton might make him available at a lower transfer fee, while Suzuki’s price tag is expected to be lower than Onana’s £47m transfer fee from Inter Milan in 2023.
Budget Constraints
With a significant overhaul of the squad planned for next season, questions remain about Manchester United’s budget for new signings.
The team will likely prioritize other positions, including a new striker and potentially replacing ageing midfielders Casemiro and Christian Eriksen.
Amorim’s Vision
As Manchester United looks to rebuild under Amorim’s guidance, the team’s goalkeeping department is set to undergo significant changes.
With a focus on strengthening the squad, Amorim’s vision for the team’s future will be crucial in determining the signings and departures in the coming months.
