  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  United have already moved to reshape their goalkeeping department. After being linked with Aston Villa’s World Cup winner Emiliano Martínez and PSG’s Champions League hero Gianluigi Donnarumma, the club eventually settled on Belgian youngster Senne Lammens. 

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Transfer insider Fabrizio Romano confirmed that the loan deal to Trabzonspor contains no option to buy and there will be no loan fee as well. This means the move is strictly about rebuilding form and regaining composure, rather than an outright parting of ways. United are keeping the door ajar for a potential return, though his long-term prospects at Old Trafford remain murky.
