Man Utd asked about Brazilian star’s availability during discussions over Atalanta's Marco Carnesecchi

Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana suffered a disappointing season, and question marks still surround his future.

Manchester United spent big money on Andre Onana in 2023, luring the goalkeeper away from Inter.

Erik ten Hag made Onana his top target to replace David De Gea, having previously worked together at Ajax.

Two years on, Onana has done little to justify his price tag and has struggled for top form at Old Trafford.

Many United fans have lost faith in Onana and would not be against a new stopper coming in this summer.

Monaco have shown an interest in Onana, but a move to the Ligue 1 side looks tricky to say the least.

Manchester United move for Atalanta’s Marco Carnesecchi

Reports suggest Monaco’s move for Onana has gone cold, meaning the Cameroonian stopper could stay.

That isn’t preventing United from eyeing other goalkeepers, though, and speculation is mounting over Atalanta’s Marco Carnesecchi.

Speculation last weekend named Carnesecchi as United’s ideal replacement should Onana move on this summer.

The rumours continue as SportItalia claim that United have spoken to Atalanta and are ready to offer around €40million (£34million) for Carnesecchi.

Atalanta are seeking an even higher fee, demanding around €45million to €50million (£38.5million to £43million).

United’s proposed fee isn’t too far away, but it’s dependent on Onana moving on.

Saudi Arabian clubs are understood to be interested in Onana, but United may find it difficult to finalise a move for the Italian without first securing Onana’s sale.

Carnesecchi certainly won’t want to risk being stuck as a second-choice stopper at Old Trafford, and United will have other priorities as things stand.

Carnesecchi has become a star for Atalanta, emerging as their first-choice goalkeeper over the last two seasons.

The 6ft 5in star has a huge future ahead of him at 24, and United will keep him in mind for the summer transfer window.

Manchester United also ask about Ederson

SportItalia add that United’s interest in raiding Atalanta doesn’t end with Carnesecchi.

It’s suggested that United also asked for more information on a potential deal for Atalanta midfielder Ederson.

The Brazilian has been linked with United for a long time now, having emerged as one of Italian football’s top midfielders.

United allegedly wanted Ederson if Amorim had won the Europa League, which sadly failed to materialise.

Reports claim United want a midfielder on loan this summer, and talks with Atalanta may have involved asking for a loan with an obligation to buy next summer.

Carnesecchi and Ederson won’t come cheap, but United may sense some instability after Gian Piero Gasperini’s exit – and may launch a double raid on Atalanta.
