Manchester United have initiated contact with Brazilian side Botafogo over a possible move for their goalkeeper, John. The 28-year-old shot-stopper is now being considered as a potential successor to André Onana, whose future at Old Trafford remains uncertain following a mixed debut season.
With United’s new manager Rúben Amorim reportedly reassessing key positions in the squad, the club is preparing for all scenarios, including the possible departure or demotion of Onana. John, known for his solid reflexes and calm presence between the posts, has been in fine form for Botafogo in the Brazilian Serie A and is now on the Red Devils’ radar.
While no official bid has been submitted, early discussions suggest United are laying the groundwork in case they need to act swiftly in the goalkeeper department.
