MU wants to steal Arsenal's target

Ignacio Arce stunned the audience with his " unbearable " tackle when Deportivo Riestra lost 0-3 to Instituto on April 14, in round 13 of the Argentine National Championship.

The Old Trafford team is having a disappointing 2024/25 season. They suffered their 14th defeat in the Premier League this season, when they were defeated 4-1 by Newcastle in round 32. It was a match where the goalkeeper's mistakes continued to be exposed.

Football Transfers reports that Manchester United are targeting a new goalkeeper to replace Onana and Bayindir. The Red Devils are ready to compete with Arsenal for Joan Garcia. The Spanish goalkeeper has a £26m release clause in his contract with Espanyol and has impressed in La Liga over the past two seasons.

Manchester United's board are confident they have the upper hand in convincing Garcia. If he moves to Old Trafford, the goalkeeper will be able to compete for a starting spot immediately. Meanwhile, Arsenal currently see Garcia as second choice, with Raya almost irreplaceable.

In the summer of 2024, Arsenal expressed interest in Garcia. The Gunners were willing to pay £17 million, but Espanyol insisted on paying the full £26 million according to the contract release clause. With Manchester United joining the fray, the Garcia deal promises to be dramatic this summer.

At present, the MU board is very fed up with Onana and Bayindir. Both goalkeepers have made serious mistakes, leaving the team in need of a new goalkeeper for the 2025/26 season.

Garcia is seen as an ideal solution at a reasonable price (£26m), averaging almost four saves per game at a 74% success rate. He also stands out for his ability to distribute the ball effectively from the back.

Newcastle's 4 goals drowned MU. Early morning of April 14, MU suffered a 1-4 defeat to Newcastle at St James' Park in round 32 of the Premier League.
