Marco Carnesecchi is having another strong campaign despite his team’s defensive and overall struggles, and Manchester United are watching him. They could pursue him in January already, but La Dea rarely sells players midseason, Tuttomercatoweb reports.

The Red Devils could be in the market for a new goalie. Senne Lammens has come under scrutiny amid their poor run of results. He has allowed 27 goals in 14 starts and hasn’t been spotless. He was solid in his maiden campaign at Old Trafford following a €21M move from Royal Antwerp. However, he hasn’t stood out in the present one, while the whole team is floundering.

Manchester United could decide to bring in a goalie they rate highly and have shortlisted Carnesecchi. On the other hand, he extended his contract until 2030, with an option, fairly recently. His valuation is extremely high.

The Nerazzurri have parted ways with a linchpin in January just twice. They offloaded Alejandro Gomez after a rift with Gian Piero Gasperini and cashed in on Ademola Lookman last year after he tried to leave for multiple windows. He hadn’t gotten off to a great start, his contract situation was about to get eerie, and Atletico Madrid made a very respectable offer.

The 26-year-old has been the starter since 2023 after spending time on loan at Cremonese. He has given up 159 goals and kept 49 clean sheets in 142 matches.

Our Take on Carnesecchi and Manchester United

Nothing can be ruled out on the transfer market, and money surely isn’t a problem for the suitors, but it’d be stunning if Atalanta parted ways with their best player while they are having a subpar season. Plus, the bids for him are there in every window, and the Ederson affair might have left some residue.
