Goalkeeper Altay Bayindir wants to stay and fight for his place at Manchester United amid interest in his signature from elsewhere in this month's transfer window.

Bayindir, 26, joined United from Fenerbahce in September 2023 and has made just four appearances for the club, featuring in only the Carabao Cup and the FA Cup.

His most recent appearance saw him commit two costly errors in United's 4-3 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in last month's Carabao Cup quarter-final at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

As reported by the Manchester Evening News earlier this week, United head coach Ruben Amorim wants to recruit a new goalkeeper this year to challenge first-choice shot-stopper Andre Onana. It is understood that Bayindir is not considered credible competition.

Bayindir, who is under contract at Old Trafford until June 2027, with the option of a further year, has been linked with an exit at various stages over the last few months, with clubs overseas and Championship outfit Hull City being credited with interest.

However, despite his agent, Sefa Seyrek, confirming clubs are interested in the shot-stopper following the opening of the January window earlier this week, Bayindir is focused on staying at Old Trafford, with his agent adding that United have no plans to offload him.

Seyrek, speaking to Sports Digitale, said: "Altay had offers from many European clubs and the Premier League at the beginning of the season.

"There are currently clubs that are interested, but Altay wants to stay and play in Manchester United. The club definitely does not want to lose Altay."

Onana and Bayindir are currently supported in the United goalkeeping department by veteran shot-stopper Tom Heaton. His deal, however, is up at the end of this season.
