Don't know if this is for real, but this kid has said he's joining us. He's a 19yr old keeper for Augsburg.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.
Interesting.
Great name to be fair.

If true then we are indeed bolstering our youth set up or it could be seen as shopping on the cheap.
A player going on 20 is not really a part of the youth setup.
It's still really young for a keeper to be fair.
I think he's 18. Seems to have English nationality.
Amos might be leaving. I really like Amos.. but he isnt going to get a chance here with De Gea and Lindegaard ahead of him.
Johnstone can go out on loan and get some experience.

De Gea, Lindegaard, Amos, Johnstone and (potentially) this guy.
Name the 2 that will leave within the next 2/3 years.

He's played for Bromley in The Conference, as well as having stints at Reading and Didcot town.
His date of birth is the 10/12/93
Born in Zurich, Switzerland
We've signed a star
Am I being short-sighted or does it seem pointless signing young goalkeepers when we plan on having De Gea as solid number 1 for 10+ years?
He's going to Barca, duh.
hes already gone, right?
Good age to learn from De Gea's experience.
Ben Amos isn't good enough to make a meaningful contribution to United, but having turned 22 in April he now counts towards the 25 man squad limit. It makes perfect sense to swap the backup-backup keeper for one who's under the age of 21.
This also suggests that Fergie plans to bring in several players in the Summer so needs to thin out the squad before then.

The young italian keeper we have looks good too.
Yeah, Gollini looks good. Is younger though.
Wishful thinking.
But unless the keeper is a early bloomer, it is tough for them at United. Zieler has developed into a fine keeper but he was never even considered good enough for our first team at that age.
Great name
Lindegaard and Amos.
De Gea has gone to Barca... right?
Not yet. Barca are preparing the bid.
