The journalist also states that United have asked for the Serbian goalkeeper’s price tag, as he is expected to leave the club in the summer. The Premier League club has also been asked to be kept informed on the 28-year-old’s situation, and Romano states that more updates will follow on this transfer pursuit in the next week. He also states that while signing a goalkeeper isn’t the topmost priority for Manchester United in the summer, that is one of the roles they would want to improve before the beginning of the 2025/26 season.
Manchester United Goalkeeping Woes
The Red Devils have had issues in the goalkeeping department throughout the 2024/25 season, with Andre Onana conceding 62 goals in 47 appearances in all competitions. The Cameroonian goalkeeper is reportedly determined to stay at Old Trafford despite being linked to a summer exit, but the club seems eager to sign a more reliable goalkeeper.

Milinkovic-Savic has been hailed as “underrated” by Torino boss Paolo Vanioli for his heroics in Serie A and has produced some admirable performances. He has kept 11 clean sheets across all competitions and conceded only 37 goals in 34 league games. The 28-year-old was signed by Manchester United in 2014, but they had to release him because of work permit issues. The Serbian is attracting the English giants’ interest again, and it remains to be seen if Ruben Amorim’s side pushes for this signing in the transfer window.
