Losc Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier has stood out in his French outfit this season and has recently become the best goalkeeper in the League One.
The 23-year-old goalkeeper is reportedly keen to move into the Premier League, with Manchester United keeping an eye on him.
Man United with Lucas Chevalier eye contact
According to a report by Footmercato, Manchester United were able to aim to make the move for him in the summer, replacing Andre Onana. The player recently revealed his dream of playing in the Premier League.
He said: “Premier League? It’s the most attractive championship that dreams of you. Tottenham, Manchester United struggles with crazy players, you can see a bit of the level. I have a two-year contract. I know the President (lol).
The Cameroon goalkeeper is overwhelmed by Manchester United and he needs to be replaced. Chevalier will be a quality long-term alternative for him. The 23-year-old French goalkeeper has proven himself in League One and has the quality to do well in the Premier League. The players have signed a contract with Reel until 2027, and it will be interesting to see if Manchester United can agree to a reasonable deal signing the player.
He is definitely a talented young player with a bright future. And his desire to move into the Premier League would be a bonus for the English club that wants to sign him.
Man United need a goalkeeper
The goalkeeping division has been a major issue for Manchester United this season and needs to be improved in that area of the pitch. Signing a French goalkeeper is a wise decision. The 23-year-old has all the tools to develop into a top-class player and establish himself as an essential asset for the club.
