Manchester United planning to re-sign Sam Johnstone from West Brom

Manchester United will make a surprise move to re-sign West Bromwich Albion goalkeeper Sam Johnstone, should either Dean Henderson or David de Gea leave the club this summer, The Sun reports.

The 28-year-old is currently in his third season with the Baggies, and he has been in impressive form despite the club’s relegation fight.

He has made 120 saves over the course of the league season, and only Leeds United’s Illan Meslier has fared better (121), having played an additional game.

The Baggies are eight points adrift of safety with only eight matches left in the campaign, and they appear likely to go down next month.
