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.<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>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\u2019s managerial situation following the recent coaching change.<\/p>\n<p>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\u2019s next coach will have a major say on whether Bayindir becomes a priority signing for the summer market.<\/p>\n<p>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\u2019s exit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir could leave the club during the summer transfer window as uncertainty continues over his long-term\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":202,"featured_media":52331,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4660],"tags":[5547,3686,3918,1823,3796,5168,2503,4722],"class_list":["post-52323","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-transfer-news","tag-altay-bayindir","tag-david-ornstein","tag-english-premier-league","tag-fabrizio-romano","tag-football","tag-football-transfer-window","tag-goalkeeper","tag-transfer-news"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52323","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/202"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52323"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52323\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":52332,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52323\/revisions\/52332"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52331"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52323"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52323"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52323"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
