Manchester United are moving for Southampton goalkeeper Alex McCarthy.

United are keeping tabs on McCarthy as Erik ten Hag seeks to replace Dean Henderson.

Henderson, 25, has joined Nottingham Forest on loan for the season and hit out at the club for their "criminal" treatment of him last term.

David De Gea remains the No1 at Old Trafford, but Saints stopper McCarthy, 32, is on the shortlist to be his understudy, says The Sun.

The one-cap England international signed a new three-year-deal at St. Mary's last term but has been bumped to No2 on the south coast by 20-year-old new signing Gavin Bazunu - despite Fraser Forster leaving the club.
