According to a report by Sports Zone via Get French Football News, Manchester United are interested in signing OGC Nice goalkeeper Marcin Bulka this summer. The Polish shot stopper looks set to leave his French employers this season as he enters the final year of his contract with them.
The English giants are coming on the back of a generationally poor season with Andre Onana in goal and see the 25-year-old as a potential successor and at least viable competition for the Cameroonian moving forward. However, the Red Devils will have competition for Bulka’s signature, with AS Monaco and Galatasaray also interested in signing him.
Bulka joined OGC Nice in the summer of 2022 after an initial loan move for just €2 million from French champions Paris Saint-Germain. He has seen his valuation soar to a reported €20 million, as per Transfermarkt.
With his 30 clean sheets in 89 appearances for the French side across competitions, Manchester United will hope they can reach an agreement for his services ahead of next season to improve their team.
Former Manchester United keeper Ben Foster has urged Bryan Mbuemo to snub the Red Devils in favor of a move to Tottenham Hotspur. The English giants endured a poor campaign that saw them finish in 15th place, their lowest league finish in 50 years and also lost the Europa League final to Spurs.
Speaking recently on his Fozcast podcast, the former Wrexham keeper said via the Manchester Evening News:
Foster concluded by insisting he was not calling Mbuemo’s quality into question, saying:
Bryan Mbuemo enjoyed a fantastic season with Brentford, bagging 20 EPL goals for the Bees. The Cameroonian reportedly indicated at the start of the transfer window that he would prioritize a move to Manchester United despite interest from other clubs in his services.
Patrick’s favorite team is Manchester United for their unparallelled legacy and success in the game. He is a big admirer of Michael Carrick and his ‘smooth’ style of play back in the days. His favorite manager is Jose Mourinho, who according to him, brought a ‘swagger’ to football with his unique managerial style. Robin van Persie’s title-winning volley against Aston Villa for the 2013 PL triumph is etched in his memory forever.
Patrick always uses trusted outlets that produce accurate, balanced and fair information, and which present multiple point of views. He believes in reporting in a holistic manner for the readers’ benefit. If he could change a football rule, he would increase the number of substitutions allowed due to the high number of games played these days, to reduce injuries and so that youngsters get to show their talent as well.
When not covering football, Patrick loves reading, writing poems and short stories, and spend time with his dog Lana.
