Manchester United<\/a> are \u2018seriously considering\u2019 signing Paraguay goalkeeper Orlando Gill, as per Spanish outlet Fichajes<\/span><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since joining Argentinian side San Lorenzo from Paraguayan team Sportivo San Lorenzo a couple of years ago, the 26-year-old has established himself as a key starter.<\/p>\n

He has come into the spotlight having displayed impressive performances for Las Albirrojas in the World Cup, helping his country reach the last-16 before losing to France.<\/p>\n

In five appearances, he kept two clean sheets with a 79% save rate. Gill guided his team to beat Germany in the last-32 by saving two penalties during the shootout.<\/p>\n

Now, Fichajes<\/em> state that Man Utd are planning to reinforce the goalkeeping department this summer and are \u2018seriously considering\u2019 signing Gill after being impressed by his recent eye-catching performances.<\/p>\n

The player is valued at around \u00a35m by Transfermarkt<\/span><\/a> and his existing deal is set to run until the end of 2027. San Lorenzo would be forced to cash-in on him this summer if a club of United\u2019s stature ultimately make a move for him.<\/p>\n

Gill is a 6ft 6in tall left-footed goalkeeper. He is an excellent shot-stopper, good in the air, and is efficient in saving penalties. The 26-year-old is still very young and isn\u2019t a finished article yet.<\/p>\n

Gill to Man Utd<\/h2>\n

Following Andre Onana\u2019s loan move to Trabzonspor, the Red Devils currently have Senne Lammens, Altay Bayindir and Tom Heaton as goalkeeper options.<\/p>\n

Since moving to Old Trafford from Royal Antwerp, Lammens has established himself as a regular starter. So, Bayindir is said to be open to leaving to play regularly.<\/p>\n

As a result, it has been suggested that the 20-time English champions are keen on purchasing a new goalkeeper. Gill is a talented player and could be a shrewd acquisition for Man Utd should they purchase him.<\/p>\n

However, it is going to be interesting to see whether Michael Carrick\u2019s side eventually make a concrete approach to secure his services during this offseason.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, apart from bolstering the last line of defence, Man Utd are keen on revamping the midfield department. Moreover, reinforcing the left side is also on Carrick\u2019s agenda, and a plethora of names have been linked with a move to Old Trafford in recent weeks.<\/p>\n
