Manchester United’s goalkeeping situation could see a shake-up next summer, with Sunderland’s Anthony Patterson reportedly on their radar. Currently, Altay Bayindir serves as Andre Onana’s backup but has seen limited action since arriving in 2023, with only two appearances. As Bayindir seeks more playing time, he may look to leave, opening the door for a new number two at Old Trafford.
Sunderland midfield sensation Chris Rigg is quickly becoming one of the hottest prospects in European football. With Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, and even Real Madrid tracking his development, the competition for his signature is heating up.
Manchester United reportedly see the 17-year-old as a future star, potentially the next Jude Bellingham. Their track record of nurturing young talent could be key in their pursuit, offering the teen an enticing pathway to first-team football.
Sunderland have completed the signing of Ola Toivonen from Ligue 1 club Rennes on a season-long loan deal.
