Marc-Andre-Ter-Stegen
Manchester United need to improve a number of positions before the start of the next campaign and without a doubt, they must bring in a quality keeper to replace Andre Onana.
It will be fair to say that replacing De Gea with Onana was one of the worst decisions made by an Old Trafford boss in the post Ferguson-era.

The Cameroonian goalie’s blunders have consistently cost the Red Devils and last term, he leaked in goals on regular basis.
If reports in the media are anything to go by then Manchester United have the opportunity to sign a proven quality shot stopper in the form of Barca captain, Marc-Andre Ter Stegen.
According to Spanish source, Nacional, Barcelona president, Joan Laporta has offered the German international to Man Utd, who are looking to replace Onana.
The media outlet have mentioned that Deco wants to offload the veteran, who has had injury concerns last term and earns a high salary.
The 33-year-old takes home around £102,000 a week and has a contract with the Nou Camp outfit until 2028.
Should Manchester United sign Ter Stegen?
The 20-time English champions failed to earn European qualification and in recent years, they have wasted a lot of cash on flop signings.
Therefore, availability of funds is a concern and United need to act smartly to reinforce several positions in the squad.
Ter Stegen spent majority of the last campaign on the treatment table and only made eight appearances in the La Liga winning campaign under Hansi Flick. He did return to full fitness last month.
Considering his age and the fact that Barca do not want him, the former Borussia Monchengladbach star is not going to cost a lot and he has the quality and the experience to solve the goal-keeping conundrum at Old Trafford.
