Manchester United 'are eyeing up a move for RB Salzburg goalkeeper Philipp Kohn' as Ralf Rangnick seeks stronger competition for No 1 David de Gea

Manchester United are mulling a potential move for RB Salzburg goalkeeper Philipp Kohn, according to Swiss media reports.

The 23-year-old has been on the Red Devils' radar for some time, with manager Ralf Rangnick well aware of the young Swiss having signed him for RB Leipzig back in 2017.

United scouts travelled to watch Kohn just a few weeks ago in Salzburg's 7-1 Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich, according to Blue Sport.
