They claim that the Hoops want to snap up the star on a four-year-deal.

The former Fenerbahce keeper was snapped up last summer along with Andre Onana but started just ONE match for Erik ten Hag’s side last season.

That’s despite being in the squad for no less than 46 matches.

But it was still enough for him to become the first EVER Turkish player to represent the Old Trafford club.

The 25-year-old is understandably keen to get more regular first team football.

And that will fit in just fine at Parkhead, where there is a major vacancy with Joe Hart announcing his retirement this summer.

The Hoops also have Scott Bain and Benji Siegrist on the books, and both have two years remaining on their current deals.

United saw potential in Bayindir, paying Fenerbahce £4.7m as they searched for an economical backup to Onana.

Bayindir has been part of the Turkish set up since 2021 but he has never quite secured the No 1 spot for Turkey, earning eight caps.

His final season at Fenerbahce was one of mixed form and he missed the final weeks with a hernia problem.
