Manchester United are reportedly keeping a close eye on Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, as manager Ruben Amorim seeks to strengthen his squad's goalkeeping department, according to GiveMeSport (via TEAMtalk). The 23-year-old Frenchman has been making waves in Ligue 1 with his impressive performances, and it appears that Manchester United are taking notice.
Chevalier has been instrumental in Lille's success this season, registering 11 clean sheets in 39 games and conceding just 44 goals. His impressive form has earned him a call-up to the French national team for the upcoming UEFA Nations League quarterfinals.
Manchester United's interest in Chevalier is reportedly driven by Amorim's desire to bolster his goalkeeping options. The Red Devils' current first-choice goalkeeper, Andre Onana, has been inconsistent this season, and Amorim is said to be exploring alternative options.
Chevalier's potential move to Manchester United would likely depend on Lille's valuation of the player. Reports suggest that the French club are demanding at least €40m to let him go, although an offer close to that amount could potentially seal the deal.
It's worth noting that Manchester United are not the only club interested in Chevalier's services. Barcelona, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain are also said to be monitoring the young goalkeeper's progress, making for a potentially intense transfer battle in the summer.
As the summer transfer window approaches, it remains to be seen whether Manchester United will make a move for Chevalier.
