Altay Bayindir is on the verge of becoming a new player for Celta de Vigo. The Galician club has reached an agreement with Manchester United to incorporate the 28-year-old Turkish goalkeeper on loan during this summer transfer window, with a purchase option of 4 million euros, variable based on the matches played. The goalkeeper has been authorized to travel and complete the medical examination.

The operation is a expected move by the Celta sports management, which has been searching for a goalkeeper for weeks to increase competition in Claudio Giráldez's squad. With the agreement closed between clubs, only the usual procedures remain before the official announcement.

Altay Bayindir will compete with Andrei Radu for the starting position

The arrival of Altay Bayindir is part of Celta de Vigo's plan to bring in an internationally experienced goalkeeper to compete with Andrei Radu. The Romanian international initially has the advantage due to his performance last season, but the club believes it is necessary to raise the level of competition in the goalkeeping position.

Bayindir arrives after two seasons at Manchester United, where he came from Fenerbahçe in 2023. During his time at Old Trafford, he had a secondary role, accumulating 17 official matches, a circumstance that has hastened his departure in search of continuity.

The loan includes a purchase option close to 4 million euros, a final amount that can be modified based on the goalkeeper's appearances during the season. In addition, the English club has authorized the player's travel to finalize the contract signing.

Manchester United facilitates Altay Bayindir's departure

Manchester United continues to reshape its goalkeeping position and considers the departure of players with limited playing time a priority. Altay Bayindir's departure frees up space in the squad and allows the Turkish international to seek minutes in a top-level league like LaLiga.

In Vigo, this signing fits with the club's plan set at the beginning of the market. The sports management sought a second goalkeeper capable of competing directly with Andrei Radu, without ruling out either of them claiming the starting position throughout the season.

Celta de Vigo's next step after signing Altay Bayindir

If no issues arise during the medical examination, Altay Bayindir will be announced in the next few hours as a new player for Celta de Vigo. The goalkeeper will immediately join the team's dynamics and travel with the group to complete the preseason. Meanwhile, the Galician club will continue to focus on strengthening the wing with the arrival of a winger, once the goalkeeper from Manchester United is integrated.
