Manchester United tracking MLS star amid goalkeeper transfer hunt

manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Manchester United are monitoring young goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic. The Serbia international has impressed in the MLS for New England Revolution and his performances have caught the eye of European clubs.

Premier League sides are keen on the 23-year-old and the Manchester Evening News understands United are interested but have not yet made contact.

The youngster has a contract until 2025 with a one-year option and his club would seek a decent fee for a player they only signed in April last year.

Petrovic came through the ranks at FK Cukaricki in his homeland and featured for the club in the Europa Conference League. He joined New England as a replacement for Arsenal-bound Matt Turner - who joined the Gunners for £5.75m - and has subsequently impressed, earning a reputation as one of the best keepers in the MLS.
