Report: Manchester United interested in Sunderland goalkeeper Jordan Pickford

Manchester United are weighing up a bid for Sunderland goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, according to reports.

The 20-year-old stopper rose through the youth ranks at the Stadium of Light, but has yet to play for the Black Cats in the Premier League.

According to The Sun, Pickford has caught the attention of Red Devils manager Louis van Gaal and the Dutchman is reportedly willing sanction a bid in excess of £2m for the goalkeeper.

The Washington-born youngster, who signed a four-year contract with Sunderland in June, is currently on loan at League One outfit Bradford City and has made 13 appearances for the Bantams this season.
