Manchester United goalkeeper Joel Pereira is a transfer target for several Spanish and Italian clubs this summer, sources have told ESPN FC.
The 21-year-old, Jose Mourinho’s third choice keeper last season, is wanted by La Liga sides Real Betis, Sevilla and Real Sociedad as well as Torino, Atalanta and Fiorentina in Serie A.
Sources have told ESPN FC that United have received enquiries about a possible loan move for the Portugal under-21 international, and that Pereira is keen to play more regular senior football and would be open to the right move ahead of next season.
Pereira has spent time on loan at Rochdale and Belenenses since arriving at Old Trafford in 2012.
