Manchester United\u00a0are set to complete the \u00a34.3million signing of Fenerbahce goalkeeper Altay Bayindir as cover for Andre Onana.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0Turkey international arrived in England over the weekend\u00a0and his agents joined him in Manchester on Wednesday to iron out the final details ahead of his move.<\/p>\n
Bayindir was an unused substitute as Fenerbahce beat Twente 5-1\u00a0in the Europa Conference League last week.<\/p>\n
His impending arrival at Old Trafford will allow Crystal Palace to complete the signing of\u00a0\u00a0Dean Henderson, who will move to Selhurst Park for \u00a315m with a further \u00a35m in add-ons.<\/p>\n
As Mail Sport reported earlier this week, United will also hold a sell-on clause.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Altay Bayindir is expected to sign for Manchester United in a \u00a34.3million deal<\/p>\n

United officials travelling to Greece last week to seal the deal for\u00a0Bayindir, who has won five caps for Turkey.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old made 40 appearances in all competitions last term as Fenerbache finished second in the Turkish Super Lig and won the Turkish Cup.\u00a0<\/p>\n
On Monday, Fred seemed to confirm that United had\u00a0completed the signing of the Fenerbahce goalkeeper.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Brazilian, who signed for the Turkish giants in the summer, said he had already bid farewell to Bayindir at his introductory press conference in Istanbul.<\/p>\n
‘I wished Altay good luck when he left. He\u2019s going to a great team.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘I gave him some suggestions about places where he could live and I told him it rains a lot.<\/p>\n
‘I think Altay is going to be very happy at Manchester United.’\u00a0<\/p>\n
Henderson was on the bench for United’s 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest on Saturday, but travelled to London soon afterward to undergo his medical.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He will replace Dean Henderson, who is set to join Crystal Palace for a fee of \u00a315m<\/p>\n
Palace have been on the lookout for a new goalkeeper as\u00a0Vicente Guaita looks to push through an exit away from Selhurst Park, with Henderson tipped to replace him.<\/p>\n
Roy Hodgson already has an England shot-stopper between the sticks in Sam Johnstone but would bring in Henderson to add competition to his goalkeeping ranks.<\/p>\n
The 26-year-old spent last season on loan at Nottingham Forest, keeping six clean sheets in 19 Premier League appearances before a thigh injury curtailed his campaign in January.<\/p>\n
Forest held discussions with United over a loan move for Henderson with an obligation to make his move permanent at the end of the season, but he eventually returned Old Trafford.<\/p>\n
