Manchester United are reportedly keen on signing 22-year-old Swedish goalkeeper Melker Ellborg from Malmo FF.

According to a report from Expressen, Manchester United are keen on signing 22-year-old Swedish goalkeeper Melker Ellborg as a potential alternative to Senne Lammens.

It is no secret that Manchester United need another goalkeeper, and Ellborg should prove to be a quality long-term acquisition. Andre Onana is currently out on loan, and he is expected to be sold permanently in the summer. Meanwhile, Altay Bayindir does not have a future at Manchester United either.

Lammens is currently the first-choice goalkeeper at the club, and he needs more competition for places. Signing the Swedish goalkeeper would be ideal. The two players could battle it out for the starting spot. The competition for places will help Manchester United improve as a team, making Ellborg a viable target.

The 22-year-old Swede will certainly be attracted to the idea of moving to the Premier League. The opportunity to move to Manchester United will be a huge opportunity for him, and it will be a major step up in his career. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United can negotiate a deal with Malmo.

The Red Devils have the resources to get the deal, and they will wrap up the transfer quickly. The goalkeeping department is an area that is in need of improvement. Manchester United need to sort out that position quickly. They are looking to build a team capable of fighting for major trophies regularly, and having two reliable goalkeepers would be ideal for them.

Ellborg could fancy the move

Convincing the 22-year-old Swedish goalkeeper to join the club will not be difficult. Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and most players will be tempted to sign for them. It remains to be seen how the situation develops over the next few weeks.

Manchester United have looked quite vulnerable in the goalkeeping department in recent seasons. They will look to get over those problems and find a long-term solution by signing two talented young goalkeepers. Lammens has done quite well since joining the club, and Manchester United will hope that the 22-year-old Swedish goalkeeper can follow in his footsteps.
