Altay Bayındır, who has been part of the Manchester United squad for a year but has only played in two matches, faces uncertainty regarding his future at the English club.
Struggling for playing time at Manchester United, Altay Bayındır’s future with the team is in jeopardy. According to The Sun, the Premier League giant wants to sign Sunderland goalkeeper Nathan Patterson.
It has been reported that Manchester United’s head coach Erik ten Hag is concerned about the inconsistent performance of the team’s main goalkeeper, Andre Onana, and is searching for a goalkeeper who will challenge the Cameroonian more than Altay Bayındır does.
It has been stated that the goalkeeper scout for the Red Devils, Tony Coton, has been monitoring Nathan Patterson, who plays for Championship team Sunderland.
It has been reported that Sunderland has set Nathan Patterson’s transfer fee at around £20 million but may be willing to accept a lower amount.
It has been noted that Erik ten Hag views Onana as his first choice, and if Patterson is signed as the backup goalkeeper, Altay Bayındır’s chances of playing will diminish, potentially leading to a transfer to another club for the Turkish goalkeeper.
Altay Bayındır has made 2 appearances for Manchester United, the club he transferred to in September 2023, conceding 2 goals. The national goalkeeper has a contract with the English team until 2027.
