However, that planned move was scrapped as United struggled to recruit a back-up goalie until Martin Dubravka arrived on loan from Newcastle on transfer deadline day.
Kovar joined the United academy from FC Slovácko in 2018 and he was included in manager Erik ten Hag's pre-season tour squad.
He was named on the bench in United's 1-0 win at Leicester last week after Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw withdrew through injury.
Kovar was first included in a matchday squad in United's 2-1 Europa League group stage defeat to Astana in November 2019.
