Despite not making a single appearance for Manchester United since his move from Fenerbahce in the summer, Altay Bayindir remains optimistic about his situation. The 25-year-old, signed for £4.3 million on deadline day, was brought in to provide backup for Andre Onana following Dean Henderson’s departure to Crystal Palace.
However, Erik ten Hag has consistently stuck with Onana as the No.1 goalkeeper for every match this season, leaving Bayindir without any playing minutes. With Onana currently participating in the African Cup of Nations, there is a possibility that Bayindir might finally make his debut during United’s FA Cup fourth-round tie against Newport, depending on Onana’s availability.
In an interview with the club’s website regarding the goalkeeper situation at Old Trafford, Bayindir expressed a positive outlook, emphasizing the good camaraderie among the goalkeepers. Despite the competition for playing time, he highlighted the team’s positive energy and the importance of supporting each other.
Bayindir, keen to make his first appearance for United, stressed the significance of good communication among the goalkeepers and the positive atmosphere within the team. He emphasized the team spirit, friendship, and the collective effort to create a successful and united family.
Acknowledging the unique challenges of their position, Bayindir shared his satisfaction with the close bond formed among the goalkeepers at the club. He emphasized the friendly and positive environment, both on and off the pitch, reinforcing the idea of a strong team bond within the “big family” at Manchester United.
