Manchester United are reportedly weighing a summer move for Southampton goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale amid ongoing uncertainty surrounding Andre Onana’s form.
The club’s first-choice shot-stopper has faced mounting scrutiny following a string of underwhelming performances, with his position increasingly under threat.
Ramsdale, 26, is being considered as a potential replacement as United seek stability in goal.
The England international, currently with recently relegated Southampton, is expected to leave St Mary’s Stadium at the end of the season.
His availability has attracted interest from multiple Premier League sides, including West Ham United.
The speculation comes in the wake of United’s 4-1 defeat to Newcastle in the Premier League, a match in which Onana was conspicuously absent from the squad. P
rior to that, the 29-year-old Cameroonian was widely blamed for both goals conceded in United’s 2-2 Europa League quarter-final first-leg draw with Lyon.
Manager Ruben Amorim is reportedly unconvinced by the goalkeeping options at his disposal and is pushing for changes.
The Sun reports that Ramsdale is open to a move, and United see him as a cost-effective and experienced option to reinforce their squad.
Though his career has included three relegations — with Bournemouth, Sheffield United, and most recently Southampton — Ramsdale remains highly regarded for his shot-stopping ability and command of the penalty area.
Ramsdale’s future has been a topic of interest for several weeks, particularly as Southampton prepare for life in the Championship.
A move to Old Trafford would represent a significant step up, but one that would come with immense pressure, especially in the wake of Onana’s high-profile struggles since joining the club.
