In the last few games of the season, Manchester United will try to get over their disappointing loss to Leeds. When United travels to Chelsea on Saturday night, it will be extremely difficult for them to stay in third position in the standings. If they don’t win, Liverpool and Aston Villa might surpass them by Sunday night.
Lisandro Martinez, who was sent off for a hair pull on Dominic Calvert-Lewin on Monday night, will also be absent from United. Carrick may require further defensive rearranging before the weekend as the Argentinian may receive a three-match suspension for the aggressive behavior.
United will be looking to finish the season strong and qualify for the Champions League with just six games remaining. According to reports, Altay Bayindir has decided to return to Turkey and depart Old Trafford this summer. The backup goalie paid £4.3 million to join from Fenerbahce in September 2023.
Altay Bayindir agrees personal terms with Besiktas
Manchester United’s starting goalkeeper at the beginning of the season was Altay Bayındır. On deadline day, however, United had to sign Senne Lammens due to a string of uneasy performances.
One month after joining the Red Devils, in October, Lammens made his United debut. Bayındır is scheduled to leave after not playing a single minute of club football since. Fanatik, a Turkish publication, claims that Besiktas and Bayındır have struck an agreement in principle over personal terms.
Before joining United under Erik ten Hag, the 28-year-old Turkey international played for Fenerbahce, the Black Eagles’ bitter rivals.
The 6-foot-6-inch talent, whom Bruno Fernandes called “top class,” is rumored to be officially transferred at the end of the current season. In January, Besiktas made an unsuccessful effort to sign him. The article also states that United is unlikely to cause problems this time, indicating that the Super Lig team will have little trouble reaching an agreement with United.
