Manchester United want Arsenal goalkeeper

Manchester United want to sign goalkeeper Karl Hein from Arsenal.

New manager Rúben Amórin has barely got his feet in the door at Old Trafford, but he is already busy making plans as to how he can improve his squad.

And with suggestions that he is less than impressed with the current incumbent as number one, André Onana, he is looking for a potential upgrade.

Hein is currently spending the season on loan in La Liga with Real Valladolid, where he has impressed.

The 22 year old has never played a senior game for the Gunners, although, due to other absentees, he was the number one during their US pre-season tour.

It was widely expected he would leave the club in the summer, but, instead, before heading out on loan, signed a one year contract extension.

That expires at the end of the season, so Arsenal would not be in a position to demand much of a fee for the player, even though they would not like to see him join a hated rival.

Andy is an exiled English football fan living in Cyprus. He loves all sports but football is his abiding passion, and he still has dreams every now and then about scoring the winning goal in a Wembley Cup Final, even though his playing days are long gone. He follows most major leagues, across Europe at least, and has a favoured team in each. When he’s not watching, listening, reading or downloading podcasts about football, he spend his time worrying about his beloved Arsenal.
