Manchester United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir reportedly filming a departure video ahead of summer exit

Manchester United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir was spotted with a camera crew on Deansgate earlier this week, according to the Sun. The Man United goalie, who last made an appearance for the Old Trafford club last September, appears to be filming a departure video having been linked with a summer exit. Bayindir was also seen filming with a Turkish broadcaster who captured him at Carrington on Wednesday. No one knows exactly why the Turkey international is being filmed, but it would not surprise many if the 28-year-old is preparing his goodbyes.

He started the season in goal but has since lost his place to Senne Lammens. Bayindir featured in Man United’s opening six league games of the campaign but has not played since then and appears to have made his last appearance for the Red Devils. Bayindir joined Man United from Fenerbahce in the summer of 2023 and has played 17 times since then, keeping two clean sheets. He had played 166 games before joining the club, keeping 53 clean sheets. The former Ankaragucu star became Man United’s first-ever Turkish player upon joining the club but could now be on his way out.

Bayindir wants to play regularly going forward and has been linked with a move to Besiktas. The club are preparing for his departure and could look to sign a cover for Lammens in the summer or promote Radek Vitek to second-choice after his impressive loan spell at Bristol City. Man United are also in talks with over handing the 40-year-old another one-year extension to his deal. He is out of contract at the end of the season, but the club want him to remain at the Old Trafford club beyond this season.
