Manchester United are chasing a fourth signing of the summer, as Erik ten Hag looks to bolster depth in his squad.
The Red Devils have started the season with mixed fortunes, having beaten Wolves but lost to Tottenham, but failing to gel as a unit. New signings Andre Onana and Mason Mount have featured, while striker Rasmus Hojlund is still injured.
Jonny Evans is still training with Manchester United, too – but a fourth signing could be on the horizon with the player seemingly desperate for a move.
According to The Mail, Benfica goalkeeper Odysseas Vlachodimos is ready to leave Portuguese football after being criticised by manager Roger Schmidt.
United have been eyeing the Greek custodian as a potential backup to Onana – and should he move to Old Trafford, it could be a transfer that helps to bring in another player elsewhere.

Dean Henderson is looking to leave United with Crystal Palace said to be interested. It would be expected for the Red Devils to recoup more money from selling their homegrown keeper than it would cost to bring Vlachodimos to the club – meaning that there would be a small net profit.
Vlachodimos would still be expected to compete with Onana, with the Stuttgart-born stopper having made over 220 appearances for Benfica – over 50 of which have come in Europe.
Manchester United are believed to still want another centre-back, with Harry Maguire left out of the squad for the match against Spurs.
Vlachodimos is valued at €16m by Transfermarkt.
