Manchester United reportedly make Atletico Madrid's Jan Oblak their top target to replace long-time goalkeeper David de Gea next summer.

Manchester United have reportedly made Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak their top target to replace David de Gea.

De Gea's contract runs out at the end of the season and whilst they have the option to extend, reports claim they are looking for potential replacements.

According to Fichajes, United have spent several weeks concentrating on the search for a new goalkeeper, with Oblak seen as their number one target.

The report also names Benfica's Odysseas Vlachodimos, Porto's Diogo Costa and Borussia Monchengladbach's Yann Sommer as other potential targets, which suggest De Gea's time at the club could soon be over.

De Gea has played over 500 times in 11 years for United, keeping 174 clean sheets and winning the Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup during his time at the club.

The Spain international also featured in the PFA Team of the Year for four years in a row between 2014 and 2018.
