New Manchester United goalkeeper Jack Butland was forced to delete a past tweet suggesting he would turn down the chance to sign for the club.
The Red Devils have swooped for the Crystal Palace star on loan after Martin Dubravka’s own temporary switch from Newcastle United was cut prematurely short. He has signed a deal until the end of the current campaign and will now act as an understudy to Erik ten Hag’s regular number one David De Gea.
Speaking after the deal was confirmed, Butland said: “This is an amazing club and one that I am now proud to represent. I’m really looking forward to working with an unbelievable goalkeeping group, supporting each other every day to create the best training and playing environment for the team.
