Manchester United’s latest shock transfer target is Everton goalkeeper Asmir Begovic... boss Erik ten Hag is keen to add a senior back-up option between the sticks with only David de Gea and Tom Heaton at the club

Manchester United are considering a move for Everton's Bosnian goalkeeper Asmir Begovic as Erik ten Hag looks to provide further back up to current No 1 David de Gea.

With veteran keeper Tom Heaton the only other option between the sticks should De Gea suffer an injury, Ten Hag had previously requested the budget for a second-choice keeper be increased from £1million to £7m.

Begovic would bring a Premier League title with him, as well as over 250 Premier League appearances, although he would likely only provide temporary cover as a No 2 until a younger alternative can be found.
