Not a midfielder, Man Utd is about to welcome a rookie in an unexpected position

With Henderson likely to join a new stop, MU is looking for a quality backup goalkeeper for Onana

After two bad matches in the Premier League, MU fans are looking forward to the team bringing in more quality players in midfield and strikers. But that Devil currently seems to be prioritizing the goalkeeper position.

According to transfer expert Romano, Manchester United are keeping an eye on Odysseas Vlachodimos, who is said to be on the verge of leaving Benfica and ready to join Old Trafford. This is the plan MU took into account because it was reported that Crystal Palace was about to enter the race to win the signature of goalkeeper Dean Henderson.

Henderson’s departure will bring some money to the Red Devils, MU is also facing financial fair play issues, so this team is quite slow in the final transfer market. However, with Tom Heaton injured, Ten Hag would not leave the position of goalkeeper without a replacement, so the Greek player Vlachodimos was chosen.

In an interview with Greek newspaper Sport24 earlier this summer, Vlachodimos said of leaving: “That’s what I want now. I’ve established myself, won titles, and experienced success. brilliant work, playing in the Champions League and Europa League. Benfica has given me a lot, that has helped me grow, but I think now is the time to take the next step.”

It will be a big challenge for MU when this goalkeeper still has a contract until 2027 and has a release clause of up to 51 million pounds. However, with Benfica’s coach no longer considering Vlachodimos as the first choice, Man United can completely negotiate to get the most reasonable price for this rookie.
