Man Utd ‘enter final stage’ of £43m transfer move as Everton ‘make enquiry’ for ex Aston Villa and Burnley man

Manchester City and Burnley will lift the curtain on the 2023/24 Premier League season exactly one month from today as English top flight football returns on August 11.

Manchester United kick off their campaign a few days later on Monday, August 14 as Wolverhampton Wanderers visit Old Trafford and Erik ten Hag still has plenty of time to get a few more summer transfer deals over the line. The Red Devils are said to be entering the ‘final stages’ on a £43 million transfer deal as they seek to replace David de Gea.

Elsewhere, Everton have apparently enquired about another United keeper who could be set to join the player exodus during this window. Here are the latest Manchester United transfer news headlines on Tuesday, July 11:

Man Utd ‘enter final stage’ of £43m transfer move

Per a report from the Daily Mail, Andre Onana’s move from Inter Milan to Manchester United is at an advanced stage. The article cites sources ‘sources close to the Cameroon goalkeeper.’

It is claimed that a deal in the region of £43million plus add-ons is set to be completed this week once Onana has agreed personal terms. The report also states that ‘insiders’ say negotiations are entering the final stage and they do not anticipate any problems in the 27-year-old keeper teaming up with his former Ajax boss Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford.

Everton ‘make eqnuiry’ for Man Utd stopper

According to The Mirror, Everton have made an enquiry about signing Manchester United goalkeeper Tom Heaton. The Red Devils reportedly already knocked back an approach for the former Burnley man from newly-promoted Luton Town but that hasn’t stopped the Toffees also asking the question about his availability.

The 37-year-old worked under Everton boss Sean Dyche at Burnley as they look for a replacement for Asmir Begovic who has departed the Merseyside club. England international Jordan Pickford remains first choice at Goodison Park as Dyche looks to bring in an established stopper to provide competition.
