Manchester United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir could leave the club during the summer transfer window as uncertainty continues over his long-term role at Old Trafford.
The Turkish international joined Manchester United from Fenerbahce in 2023, but regular playing time has remained difficult to secure. Bayindir has mostly played as backup to first-choice goalkeeper Andre Onana and now Senne Lammens, is now considering his options ahead of the new season.
Sources close to the situation suggest that a summer departure is a realistic possibility if the 27-year-old receives a strong offer with guarantees of more minutes on the pitch. Bayindir is understood to be open to returning to Turkey if the right project arrives.
Besiktas remain one of the clubs showing interest in the goalkeeper. The Istanbul side have been monitoring Bayindir for several months and continue to view him as a potential option for next season. However, any move is currently dependent on the club’s managerial situation following the recent coaching change.
Besiktas are expected to make important decisions regarding squad planning once a new manager is fully appointed and discussions over transfer targets are completed. The club’s next coach will have a major say on whether Bayindir becomes a priority signing for the summer market.
Manchester United are also expected to assess their goalkeeping department in the coming weeks as preparations begin for the 2026/27 campaign. If a suitable offer arrives, the Premier League club may be willing to negotiate Bayindir’s exit.
