Manchester United have been quoted an asking price of around £13 million to secure the services of 21‑year‑old River Plate goalkeeper Santiago Beltran. The Argentine international, already recognised as a highly‑rated prospect, is now the focus of a concrete bid from the Premier League giants. United’s interest appears to have moved beyond preliminary scouting, with the club reportedly preparing to meet the South American club’s valuation.

Beltran, who has featured for Argentina at youth level, is praised for his composure, shot‑stopping ability and command of the box.

The goalkeeper’s age and international pedigree suggest a bright future at a major European club, and United’s willingness to meet a seven‑figure fee underscores the belief that he could develop into a first‑choice option.

United’s pursuit of Beltran arrives alongside a flurry of activity across Europe. The Red Devils are also in talks to sign Leicester
