Manchester United are interested in signing Botafogo goalkeeper John Victor during the summer transfer.
Manchester United need more quality and depth in that area of the pitch, and reports from Goal Brazil claim they are willing to pay his release clause.
Botafogo is already considering a potential alternative to the 29-year-old goalkeeper. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United can close the move right away.
Man United need another goalkeeper
They need more depth in that area of the pitch, and the Brazilians could prove to be an ideal acquisition.
He had quality and experience, and John Victor was able to compete with Andre Onana for the starting spot. The African goalkeeper recently picked up a hamstring injury, and he missed the preseason. Victor was able to fill out for him. The Brazilian goalkeeper is trying to establish himself as a Manchester United player.
Last season, Onana was a very disappointing experience. South America will certainly fantasize about a chance to take his spot in the starting lineup. He has demonstrated his abilities in Brazil and has a quality that thrives in the UK.
John Victor was able to fantasize about the old Trafford movements
A move to the Premier League was a major step in his career, and this is a great opportunity for him to showcase his qualities at the highest level. Manchester United is one of the largest clubs in the world, and opportunities to participate in them can be difficult to refuse.
The goalkeeper is at the peak of his career, and this is the right time for him to move on and take on new challenges. It will be interesting to see if he can quickly adapt to British football and make an immediate impact at Manchester United.
