Manchester United are considering a move for Switzerland international keeper Yann Sommer.

United scouts watched the experienced Sommer claim a clean sheet for Borussia Monchengladbach on Friday night, says The Sun.

Sommer, 33, is emerging as the top candidate to provide competition for faltering No 1 David de Gea.

But it will be hard to tempt him to sign as cover when he needs to play to stay in the national side.

The Red Devils would have to convince Sommer he would play in enough games to make the move worthwhile for him.
