Manchester United are edging closer to completing their second departure of the summer transfer window.
United officially confirmed earlier today that academy defender Tyler Fredricson has completed a permanent move to Lausanne-Sport.
Attention has now shifted towards another player who could soon follow him through the exit door.
According to The Sun, United have held fresh talks with the agents of Altay Bayindir over a potential exit.
The 28-year-old joined United from Fenerbahce for £4.1 million on transfer deadline day in September 2023.
He managed only 17 appearances across three seasons as opportunities remained limited.
He served as a back-up to Andre Onana but was unable to convince the coaching staff that he deserved to become the club’s first-choice goalkeeper.
Even during periods when Onana endured several costly mistakes, Bayindir failed to establish himself as a serious alternative.
Former manager Ruben Amorim handed him an opportunity to impress last season, but the Turkish international struggled to seize his chance.
His performances ultimately failed to provide the confidence required to challenge for the number one shirt.
A departure from Old Trafford now looks increasingly inevitable, with several Turkish clubs monitoring his situation.
It remains unclear whether United will secure a permanent transfer or eventually agree to a loan deal.
Bayindir is unlikely to be the only goalkeeper leaving Carrington before the transfer window closes.
Radek Vitek also appears destined for an exit as he looks to secure regular first-team football elsewhere.
Experienced goalkeeper Karl Darlow has already arrived on a free transfer and is expected to provide dependable cover for first-choice Senne Lammens.
