Angus Gunn, a 30-year-old free agent after leaving Nottingham Forest, is seen as a potential fit given his background and experience. He was a key player for Scotland during the World Cup and has a history with Manchester City's academy, where he was under the guidance of Jason Wilcox. Wilcox, who is now United's sporting director, played a significant role in Gunn's early development.

This potential signing aligns with Manchester United's strategy to secure a reliable and seasoned goalkeeper, filling a crucial position as they prepare for future competitions, including the upcoming World Cup.
