Manchester United continue to be linked with potential goalkeeping additions amid question over Andre Onana’s form this season.
It has now become easier to discuss what Manchester United don’t need in the transfer window.
Ruben Amorim is facing problems all over the pitch as he looks to drag the club forward after a difficult first three months in the job.
Amorim will be looking for more quality in midfield and dangerous options in attack, but possibly even another goalkeeper.
Andre Onana could be replaced after enduring some very difficult moments this season, costing United a number of goals.
Reports in January suggested that Amorim wants two new goalkeepers at United, leaving both Onana and Altay Bayindir in danger.

Manchester United linked with Real Madrid ace
United fancy signing Bart Verbruggen from Brighton and Hove Albion but another goalkeeper is now in the mix.
Spanish newspaper SPORT claim that United are now interested in signing Real Madrid stopper Andriy Lunin.
More United News
It’s suggested that Lunin could be sold by Real this summer with the Ukrainian serving as backup to Thibaut Courtois.
The 26-year-old joined Real from Zorya Luhansk in 2018 and embarked on loans to Leganes, Real Valladolid and Real Oviedo.
Mostly serving as cover for Courtois, Lunin was pressed into a major role last season due to an injury to Courtois.
Lunin played more than 30 times in all competitions, helping Real win the Champions League and La Liga.
Lunin’s lack of playing time this season means a summer exit is now being considered with United thought to be keen.
Jude Bellingham a big fan of Andriy Lunin
It’s unclear whether United would view Lunin as competition for Onana or as a replacement for the Cameroonian.
Lunin will surely want significant playing time if he is to leave Real though, having spent so much time as a backup there.
Lunin has impressed in his limited starts and certainly has a big fan in Jude Bellingham.
Bellingham called Lunin ‘unbelievable’ on Instagram last season as he produced a fine display against RB Leipzig.
Lunin is just one of a number of goalkeepers to be linked with United but is a name to keep close tabs on as the summer window approaches.
