Manchester United are close to announcing Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka as their latest summer arrival.
The shot-stopper looks set to arrive on a season-long loan with a £5million option to buy. Erik ten Hag has been keen to recruit a back-up to David de Gea following Dean Henderson’s exit to Nottingham Forest.
Although the England international’s move is only a loan, his recent critical comments about his treatment at United may well indicate that a return is unlikely. It will cause Ten Hag to re-think his long-term goalkeeping options but for now, 33-year-old Dubravka will provide strong competition for De Gea.
