Man Utd transfer target receives ringing endorsement from ex-Liverpool goalkeeper

Highly-rated MLS goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic has been tipped to be good enough to play for Manchester United or Chelsea by a former Premier League stalwart.

The New England Revolution stopper has earned rave reviews for his performances after moving to MLS just over a year ago, with his whirlwind rise to prominence having seen him become one of the league's hottest properties. The 23-year-old signed for the Revs from Cukaricki in his homeland of Serbia and made an immediate impression, earning himself the MLS Save of the Year award in the process.

On top of this, the two-time international also was named as runner-up in the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year vote after keeping six clean sheets in 16 outings and becoming the fasted fastest goalkeeper to save five penalties. This impactful first year stateside has been followed up with a strong showing this term as well, with Petrovic keeping another six clean sheets so far from 18 appearances.
