Theatre of Nightmares: Hapless Handanovic fails Manchester United audition

The Slovenian is set to leave Inter this summer to join a Champions League giant but made an uncharacteristic gaffe at the worst time possible

Saturday began with the news that Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal had already settled on a shortlist of replacements for David De Gea should his move to Real Madrid go ahead.

The Slovenian is set to leave Inter this summer and has made no secret of his desire to join a European giant like United, which can offer him Champions League football.
