Fenerbahce goalkeeper Altay Bayindir rejects Man Utd offer

Fenerbahce goalkeeper Altay Bayindir has turned down the chance to play for Manchester United.

While the Red Devils have their new number one goalkeeper in Andre Onana, they also want an understudy.

Dean Henderson is likely to leave for Nottingham Forest in a permanent deal this summer.

Per Posta, United were ready to secure the 25-year-old Bayindir for his £5.2 million release clause.

While the keeper was flattered at being linked to such a big side, he does not want to play a backup role.

Bayindir knew that if he moved to Old Trafford, he would be playing second fiddle to Onana all season.
