Manchester United are looking to see what happens to De Gea, with PSG interested. If the Spanish goalkeeper finally does leave. 'Metro' have said that the English side would target Jan Oblak.

Manchester United seem to not have lost focus on Jan Oblak despite his recent renewal with Atletico Madrid. Atletico extended the Slovenian's contract until 2023, bringing his release clause to 120 million.

From 100 to 120 million, there is not too much difference considering the sharp increases in transfer value of players. For this reason, United are prepared to pay Oblak's clause should De Gea ends up leaving the team.

Once again this summer, the Spanish goalkeeper's name is on everyone's lips. PSG have even been in contact with him, according to 'La Sexta'. If  United do not qualify for the next Champions League, his departure would be even more feasible.

Anyway, only Oblak's will would make him change from Wanda Metropolitano to Old Trafford. Which seems unlikely, especially after signing his renewal and with Atletico second in La Liga.
