Man Utd target bargain price keeper with top transfer choices Onana and Costa set to be too expensive

MANCHESTER UNITED are now targeting a cheaper alternative to be their new goalkeeper after deciding Andre Onana and Diogo Costa are too expensive.

But that move means the Dutchman will have blown over half of his limited £100m transfer budget, enforced through FFP regulations, as he still searches for a new striker and goalie.

He was offered the chance to stay at Old Trafford on massively reduced terms.

However, reports suggested that that £200k-a-week offer was later rescinded by the club, wanting him to instead accept an even bigger cut.

And the Red Devils are now effectively asking the player to hang around in case they cannot find a new number one within their transfer budget.

Ten Hag has been chasing Inter Milan's Onana and have also been keen on Porto's Costa - but a move for either man is dependent on United being able to raise more funds by offloading some of the 13 players the boss is ready to offload.

Now The Athletic has claimed that they have made contact over a potential move for Feyenoord goalkeeper Justin Bijlow.

Ten Hag knows the Dutch international, 25, well from his time in the Eredivisie.

And United have reportedly checked with Feyenoord on his availability - although they have been told that the Netherlands giants are "very reluctant" to sell.

The 26-year-old keeper spent last season on loan at Nottingham Forest after a fall-out with the Red Devils.

He is being heavily linked with a permanent move to the City Ground after recovering from the thigh surgery that ruled him out for the last few months of the campaign.

Henderson recently claimed that he “p***ed off the Dutch manager” and believes “he is not in line for a comeback” as he revealed he did not want Ten Hag to see him training as he believed the boss would want to keep him.

And veteran United backup stopper Tom Heaton has also been blocked from joining Luton amid the current uncertainty around the goalie position at the club.
