Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United are shifting their attention to Brighton’s Robert Sanchez as their search for a new goalkeeper continues.
Manchester United feel their first choice target Andre Onana is proving to be too expensive with Inter Milan valuing him at between £40m-£50m.
According to Daily Mail, the Red Devils are looking for cheaper alternatives and Sanchez has emerged on their radar, with Brighton unlikely to ask for more than £30m for the 25-year-old.
The Spain international fell down the pecking order at the Amex last season under Roberto De Zerbi, losing his place in goal to Jason Steele, while the Seagulls have bought a new ‘keeper in Bart Verbruggen this summer.
Sanchez has made just 90 Premier League appearances for Brighton, with his only other first team experience during loan spells at Forest Green Rovers and Rochdale. However, he has done enough to win two Spain caps.
Earlier this year former England goalkeeper David James backed Sanchez as the ideal long-term replacement for De Gea.
