He will be the team&#8217;s representative player, but it remains to be seen whether the 35-year-old is ready to accept the role.<\/p>\n<p>If he signs an extension with Leeds United next season, he could be able to play regularly. Regular football is appealing to the player, but it may be difficult to turn down the opportunity to play for Manchester United at this stage of his career. This is his last chance to join the elite club.<\/p>\n<p>The 35-year-old goalkeeper will soon become a free agent and Manchester United could sign him for a nominal fee. No wonder they are so keen on this player. They won&#8217;t want to invest too much in reserve players.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>Want more catchoffside coverage?

With a big fixture jam expected in the upcoming campaign, Manchester United will need more players at their disposal to survive the grueling schedule.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manchester United are interested in signing Leeds United goalkeeper Karl Darlow.
