Furthermore, United have also extended Tom Heaton\u2019s contract, with the veteran set to remain as the side\u2019s third-choice shot-stopper.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Red Devils continue to be linked with another goalkeeper.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester United make move for San Lorenzo star Orlando Gill<\/p>\n<p>According to Brazilian outlet <a href=\"https:\/\/rtiesporte.com.br\/orlando-gill-manchester-united-san-lorenzo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">RTI Esporte<\/a>, Manchester United have made initial enquiries to assess a potential transfer for Paraguayan goalkeeper Orlando Gill.<\/p>\n<p>Th 6\u20196\u2033 giant was one of his country\u2019s standout performers at the World Cup. He was named FIFA\u2019s Player of the Match against both Germany and France.<\/p>\n<p>The 26-year-old currently plays for\u00a0Argentine outfit San Lorenzo at club level. It is claimed United have tracked him since the beginning of the season. Now, after a solid World Cup campaign, the Premier League giants\u2019 interest has intensified and the player\u2019s reputation has skyrocketed.<\/p>\n<p>It is suggested that United view Gill as a player capable of becoming a leading figure in European football. His imposing presence, aerial ability, and composure with the ball at his feet are all thought to be valued by the club\u2019s football department.<\/p>\n<p>The report states San Lorenzo will sanction his departure if they receive offers in the region of \u20ac10m (\u00a38.5m) for their star goalkeeper, who is also admired by Serie A outfits Lazio and Torino.<\/p>\n<p>Senne Lammens remains Manchester United\u2019s number one<\/p>\n<p>While the report says a goalkeeper is one of United\u2019s priorities this summer, it is difficult to see where Gill would fit at Old Trafford, given Lammens emerged as the undisputed number one at the club.<\/p>\n<p>As things stand, there have been no suggestions that this has changed ahead of next season.<\/p>\n<p>The 24-year-old enjoyed a phenomenal maiden campaign in the Premier League before heading to the World Cup. Although he made a costly error for Belgium, he has been backed by experienced goalkeepers <a href=\"https:\/\/thepeoplesperson.com\/2026\/07\/19\/tom-heaton-predicts-senne-lammens-reaction-to-world-cup-mistake-312919\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Thibaut Courtois and Heaton<\/a> to come out of the setback a stronger player.<\/p>\n<p>As such, it appears United\u2019s name is being used to attract more European suitors for Gill.<\/p>\n<p>Featured image Buda Mendes via Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>The Peoples Person has been one of the world\u2019s leading Man United news sites for over a decade.
