Manchester United are set to wait for clarification on David de Gea's future before making a decision on which goalkeeper to pursue this summer, amid interest in Andre Onana and Justin Bijlow.

There was interest in 20-year-old Bart Verbruggen to fulfill such a role before he joined Brighton from Anderlecht this week for £16.3million.
As well as holding talks with De Gea, United officials are also speaking to Dean Henderson over his own future. The academy graduate returned to
