Manchester United have set their sights on a move for Odysseas Vlachodimos as the club assess their options for a back-up goalkeeper.

The Red Devils continue to be in the market for a second choice stopper this summer, as Dean Henderson appears to be nearing the exit door at Old Trafford.

Odysseas Vlachodimos among options being considered by United

Vlachodimos has long-term admirers at Old Trafford, and the club could be set to make a move for the Benfica goalkeeper this week, according to reports in the Daily Mail.

The Greek international has played 33 times for his nation, despite having represented Germany at youth level between 2009 and 2017.

Vlachodimos signed for Benfica in the summer of 2018 after impressing during a two-season stint with Panathinaikos.

The goalkeeper was immediately installed as the number one choice, and impressed during their Champions League campaign.

Newcastle were previously linked with a move in January 2022, but he opted to remain in Portugal and signed a new deal with the club in March 2023.

The 29-year-old has a $60 million release clause in his deal, but United will be keen to work on a compromise after spending big on Andre Onana already this summer.
