Manchester United are keeping all options open over who will be the club’s goalkeeper in 2023.

David de Gea has not yet been offered a new contract, while Dean Henderson was sent out on loan for another year.

Meanwhile Manchester United have reportedly been scouting Porto sensation Diogo Costa.

The Metro and The MEN both claim United hold interest in the goalkeeper, and Red Devils star Diogo Dalot would certainly approve.

Dalot message to Costa

Costa has been outstanding for Porto in the Champions League this season, saving two penalties so far in the competition.

Last night he saved a spot kick against Club Brugge, which then had to be retaken. He then saved it again.

Porto won the game 4-0, with Costa delivering a real masterclass. Dalot was impressed and reached out to him on social media to let him know.

Costa is Portugal’s number one after breaking into the team last season like Dalot. The pair previously knew each other from under-21 level.

The Porto stopper had provided an assist in the previous Champions League game against Bayer Leverkusen, and his heroics have helped the side into second place in their group with one game to go.

Manchester United may well have been watching his display against Club Brugge, and while David de Gea is a club hero with more than 500 appearances, Costa could be the future.
