MANCHESTER UNITED have been put on alert after hearing Paris Saint-Germain’s bargain asking price for Gianluigi Donnarumma.
The Red Devils are hunting for a new No.1 this summer as uncertainty continues around the future of current goalkeeper Andre Onana.

Onana joined the club in a £47.1m deal two years ago, but has endured a difficult time at Old Trafford, with reports suggesting the club are looking at replacing him.
Man Utd have expressed interest in Donnarumma, 26, during his contract stand-off with the newly crowned Kings of Europe.
Donnarumma, considered one of the best shot-stoppers in the world, has entered the final 12 months of his contract in the French capital.
And now United’s ears have perked after PSG set a €40m (£34m) asking price for Donnarumma, according to La Repubblica.
With no extension agreed and financial terms unresolved, the club are open to selling him this summer.
PSG are keen for the Italy international to stay, but he has reportedly been underwhelmed by the club’s proposals so far.
United boss Ruben Amorim is keen to bring in a new first-choice stopper, with the chance to sign Donnarumma too good to turn down.
As well as winning the treble this season, he was also player of the tournament as Italy won Euro 2020.
England fans will remember him for his heroics in the final at Wembley, which saw him save THREE penalties as Italy won.

According to L’Equipe, the PSG goalkeeper has been vocal about the possibility of joining an English team during chats with his Italian team-mates.
But Donnarumma has insisted he wants to stay at the Parc des Princes , despite reports.
He said after Italy’s 2-0 World Cup qualifying win over Moldova: “My priority is to stay at PSG.
“I don’t think there will be problems with the negotiations.”
Donnarumma joined PSG five years ago from AC Milan on a free transfer, and has made 154 appearances in all competitions for the French champions.
Manchester City are also interested in Donnarumma as they look for a long-term replacement for club legend Ederson, who turns 32 before the start of next season.
United, meanwhile, have also been interested in Aston Villa keeper Emi Martinez.
