Manchester United are reportedly eyeing Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn, as manager Michael Carrick continues to reshape his squad.
The 30‑year‑old left Nottingham Forest and is seen as a non‑signed target, according to The Sun.
United need an experienced backup as Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir’s futures hang in the balance.
While Senne Lammens is the current number one, Carrick still requires trustworthy depth ahead of the Champions League return.
A seasoned free agent would strengthen the goalkeeping department without a significant outlay.
Gunn’s prior link to Jason Wilcox, who was part of City’s academy coaching staff when Gunn progressed through the ranks, could provide insight into his character and development.
Although not a headline‑making pick, Gunn’s experience, availability, and knowledge of the English game make him a practical option.
His international exposure at the World Cup – featuring starts against Haiti and Morocco – kept him in the spotlight despite a quiet club season at Forest.
Another contender on United’s radar is Karl Darlow, who will be out of contract with Leeds United next week and has 22 appearances to his name.
The club appears to seek a reliable backup rather than a new first‑choice goalkeeper, favouring a player who can competently cover and support.
Should Onana and Bayindir depart, United may act promptly to secure a cost‑effective solution.
