Altay Bayandir is nearing the end of his stay in the Premier League with Manchester United. Besiktas are keen to sign a goalkeeper again.
The former Fenerbahçe player lost his place in the starting eleven of the Old Trafford team at the beginning of the season. He was given a chance ahead of Andre Onana but could not impress.
The arrival of Sane Lammens last summer has made him firmly second choice again.
This has led to claims that he could return to the Super League in the summer. We covered reports Besiktas had made an agreement to sign him.
Manchester United are ready to let the Türkiye international leave for a discounted transfer fee. He is currently valued at €7m transfer marketAnd the fee was set at €5m.
The Black Eagles were also keeping an eye on the 27-year-old during the January window as they look for a replacement for the departed Mert Gunnock.
They brought in Davis Vasquez from AS Roma on loan with an option to purchase in the summer, but still want to sign Bayandir.
Manager asked about transfer
However, Besiktas manager Sergen Yalkin has tried to cool his club’s relationship with the Manchester United player. However he did not deny that a framework agreement had been reached.
Speaking at a press conference, Yalkin was asked if he wanted to bring in the Red Devils keeper, as covered ajanspor. The Besiktas boss said it is not something they are thinking about at the moment.
Despite this, Yalkin said it was something they would address at the end of the season.
“This is not the time to answer these questions. We play cups, leagues. We will talk about these issues when the transfer window comes.”Related to Yalcin.
Analysis: Beindir and Manchester United
Bayandir started the season as Manchester United’s number 1, following Andre Onana’s poor form during the previous campaign. However, since Lammens’s arrival from Royal Antwerp he had hardly been involved.
The goalkeeper hasn’t had any minutes since September, and didn’t even get a chance as the Red Devils played in the EFL Cup and FA Cup. The club was eliminated from both in the first round itself.
No European football has helped either, with only the Premier League remaining.
Contract status, price and agent
The Turkish stopper is contracted with the Premier League club until June 2027, but Manchester United has an option for a further year.
Transfermarkt has it at €7m, down from a high of €15m due in 2022. In Türkiye, it is believed he will move for around €5m.
Bayindir is represented by the agent’s sole client Sefa Cyrek.
