It looks like Ruben Amorim is set for a shock debut in tonight’s English Premier League game against Leicester City.
And it’s in the goalkeeping department that a new name will appear in the Manchester United teamsheet.
Goalkeeper has become a bit of a problem for United.
Andre Onana, brought into the club at great expense by former manager Erik ten Hag, has been riddled with inconsistency since swapping Inter Milan for The Red Devils.
Brought in to play out from the back, a trait that was deemed out of reach for David de Gea, the former Ajax goalkeeper has been troubled by dropping clangers every now and then.
Last season’s UEFA Champions League exit has attributed to many errors made by the Cameroon international.
And the errors have continued on a consistent basis since then.

Even Sir Jim Ratcliffe had a slight dig at Andre Onana in interviews recently.
Due to that, there have been a lot of questions around the future of that number one position within the Old Trafford goals.
Altay Bayindir, the current number two, hasn’t been given a real go, despite his heroics helping the team past Arsenal in the FA Cup.
There have also been reports linking United with buying other goalkeepers.
And it seems that Ruben Amorim is going to try another ‘keeper in the game against The Foxes at the King Power Stadium.
According to Twitter user sully_sayz, 22-year-old Dermot Mee is going to make his debut for the club in the Leicester City game.
Mee is a Birmingham born Northern Ireland goalkeeper and is set to deputise for Andre Onana in goal.
While Onana has been primarily criticised for his performances in the United goal, it’s not believed that he’s dropped.
Instead, it seems that it’s a fitness issue keeping him out of the side.
Either way, it’s going to be a great opportunity for young Dermot Mee to show the Old Trafford faithful what he’s capable of.
