MANCHESTER UNITED'S goalkeeper hunt has taken another twist after Inter Milan identified a replacement for in-demand Andre Onana.

The Red Devils have been linked with Feyenoord star Justin Bijlow amid fears Onana and Porto's Diogo Costa could be too expensive.

But Inter are said to be tracking Atalanta's Marco Carnesecchi in case £52million-rated Onana does depart.

It follows United releasing David de Gea on his wedding date - Saturday.

Incredibly, the Red Devils asked the long-serving Spaniard NOT to join a new club while they remain in limbo over his successor as No 1.

Inter are still wary of losing Cameroon ace Onana, 27, who is also on the radar of Chelsea and Cristiano Ronaldo's Saudi team Al-Nassr.

Now Sport Italia's Gianluigi Longari has revealed the Serie A giants are keen on Carnesecchi.

The 23-year-old was loaned to Cremonese for the past one and a half seasons.

He helped them to promotion before spending last term in the top flight.

Carnesecchi has also played 22 times for Italy Under-21s.

Meanwhile, it seems Erik ten Hag's rollercoaster pursuit of a new top-class stopper could still turn any way.

The Old Trafford boss has to juggle his £100m transfer budget carefully.

And a £60m slice of that sum will disappear when England playmaker Mason Mount completes his move from Chelsea.

The Athletic suggest the latest serious contender is Holland keeper Bijlow.
