Manchester United are considering a move for Louie Moulden from Wolves to bolster their goalkeeping options, according to TEAMtalk. The 22-year-old shot-stopper is available on a free transfer following the expiration of his contract with Wolves, making him an attractive prospect due to his homegrown status.
United currently have Andre Onana as their first-choice keeper, with Altay Bayindir serving as his deputy. However, Bayindir’s difficult season has prompted Erik ten Hag to seek additional competition for Onana. Tom Heaton remains a reliable third-choice keeper and might extend his stay at the club.
The addition of Moulden could provide depth and future competition within the squad. Despite not featuring in a senior game for Wolves since joining in 2021, Moulden has gained experience through loan spells. His potential and homegrown status make him a valuable acquisition for Manchester United.
Moreover, United are exploring other goalkeeper options, including Real Sociedad’s Alex Remiro and Real Madrid’s Andriy Lunin. However, the high fees for Remiro and the challenge of displacing Onana might limit these pursuits.
Moulden’s signing would address the need for a solid backup while maintaining compliance with homegrown player regulations, reinforcing United’s goalkeeping ranks for the upcoming season.
