Reports say Manchester United have now begun consultations to sign a “inexplicable” Colossus worth over £13 million.
Man UTD sets sights for new goalkeepers
It’s fair to say Andre Onana was happy to deceive after arriving from Inter Milan. Reuben Amorim occasionally dropped goalkeepers for Altai Bayindeal during the 2024-25 season, with the Turks playing three of their last four Premier League matches.
So it’s no surprise that United is now trying to incorporate Onana’s replacement. They aim at many ambitious targets, many of whom are extremely experienced at the Champions League level.
That said, following the final Europa League defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, it could be difficult to attract some of Europe’s top goalkeepers, and the Red Devils now raced for a more likely more achievable target.
According to a report from Givemesport, Man United has now begun consultations with an aide of OGC’s Nice Goalkeeper Marcin Bulka, but it is not possible to trade until January 2026, given that the two clubs are owned by INEOS.
United will not be able to trade with French clubs until September, so they can wait until January before moving goalkeepers, which have exceeded £13 million until January.

AC Milan and Galatasaray are able to offer a competition for Burka’s signatures, and United are not yet engaged in formal club-to-club negotiations.
“Mad” Burka is moved in League One
Football scout Ben Matinson expressed shock that the 25-year-old has been in Nice for a long time given his impressive performance in France. “Marcin Bułka was insane. PSG. I’m amazed that he’s still in a good guy after being the best goalkeeper in League One last season.
“His shot combination stops his shots and quality distribution while he’s 6’6,” he makes a great option for a large team. ”
Certainly, the Polish shot stopper put in what could be his career-best performance against former club PSG in April, and after making nine saves from inside the box to prevent 2.53 goals, he achieved a 10-sofa score rating.
Nice kicked out a 3-1 winner against the European champions, averaging the second-highest League 1 rating on the team last season, and was embarrassed by them in their own backyard courtesy of the Colossus between the sticks.
So, Burka could be a great signing from Man United, and he could be a more achievable target than the likes of Donnaruma or Ter Stegen, but the fact that he has to wait until January is frustrating.
