Schalke 04 goalkeeper Manuel Neuer remains a target for Manchester United.
The News of the World says while Edwin van der Sar is ready to pen a new United deal, the pursuit of Neuer will not be shelved.
Van der Sar is likely to come under threat next season if United complete their proposed deal for Schalke 04 keeper Neuer.
He has already seen off Tomasz Kuszczak and Ben Foster, but Neuer has been told he would come in for a straight fight with van der Sar.
