Erik ten Hag continues 'scouting mission' during World Cup as part of Man Utd plan

Manchester United are reportedly tracking the progress of Spain goalkeeper Unai Simon at the World Cup.

The Red Devils could be in the market for a new keeper to provide competition for David de Gea, whose current contract runs out at the end of the season. Although the club have an option to extend the 31-year-old's deal for a further 12 months which will take him to his 13th season at Old Trafford.

United are weighing up whether to give De Gea a new contract but with caveat of the former Atletico Madrid shot-stopper forced to take a major pay cut. De Gea currently earns £375,000 per-week but, according to the Daily Star, United want to slash that by at least £100,000 per week, saving almost £5million annually.
