Man Utd transfer interest prompts former USA star to hit back at MLS critics

Former United States star turned pundit Taylor Twellman has mocked critics of MLS after highly-rated New England Revolution goalkeeper Djorje Petrovic was linked a move to Manchester United.

Talented stopper Petrovic has won widespread plaudits for his performances since swapping his homeland Serbia for the US in 2022, with his strong showings leading to interest from the Premier League giants. According to the Manchester Evening News, the 23-year-old two-time international could well be a solution to United's current lack of options in the position.

The former Cukaricki star made an immediate impression in America and kept six clean sheets in his first 16 outings for his Bostonian employers, while also taking home the MLS Save of the Year award. On top of this, the emerging talent also made enough of an impact to be named as runner-up in the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year vote.
