Manchester United reportedly seem set to seal the transfer of Borussia Monchengladbach goalkeeper Yann Sommer.
The experienced Swiss international has had an excellent Bundesliga career and has also made 79 appearances for the Swiss national team, including this year’s World Cup in Qatar.
According to Bild, translated by Manchester Evening News, it now appears Sommer is preparing to move to the Premier League when his contract expires in the summer.
It looks like the Red Devils would be at the front of the queue for Sommer’s signing, with the club perhaps even poised to make the 33-year-old their new number one to replace David de Gea.

De Gea is a legendary figure at Old Trafford so this would be a great decision for Erik ten Hag if he decides to make this switch.
Sommer is a good goalkeeper, however, and may well be seen as a better fit for Ten Hag’s style of play, which involves a lot of buildup and the ability to play from behind.
