Despite being part of the Manchester United squad for a year, Altay Bayındır has only played in two matches, and his future at the English club is in jeopardy. The team's head coach, Erik ten Hag, is looking for a goalkeeper who can challenge the first-choice keeper, Andre Onana, more than Altay can. Manchester United is interested in signing Nathan Patterson, the goalkeeper from Championship team Sunderland, and if this transfer goes through, the national team goalkeeper may leave the club.
Despite being at Manchester United for a year, national goalkeeper Altay Bayındır is struggling to find playing time, and his future at the English club is in jeopardy.
ERIK TEN HAG IS LOOKING FOR A GOALKEEPER
According to The Sun, the Premier League giant wants to sign Sunderland goalkeeper Nathan Patterson. Manchester United's head coach Erik ten Hag is reportedly concerned about the inconsistent performance of the team's first-choice goalkeeper Andre Onana and is searching for a goalkeeper who will challenge the Cameroonian more than Altay Bayındır. It has been stated that the Red Devils' goalkeeping scout Tony Coton has been monitoring Nathan Patterson, who plays for Championship team Sunderland. Sunderland has reportedly set Patterson's transfer fee at around £20 million but may be willing to accept less.
ALTAY MAY LEAVE THE TEAM
The report indicates that Erik ten Hag sees Onana as his first choice, and if Patterson's transfer as a backup goalkeeper goes through, Altay will have no chance of playing, and the Turkish keeper may transfer to another team.
MANCHESTER UNITED CAREER
Altay Bayındır has only played 2 matches since transferring to Manchester United in September 2023, conceding 2 goals. The national goalkeeper has a contract with the English club until 2027.
