The Sun exclusively reported that some Manchester United first-team players believe that three goals Heaton should get the chance. The Sun said that some first-team players believe Heaton performed better than main goalkeeper Onana and substitute goalkeeper Baindel in training, and Heaton deserves the opportunity.
The Sun said that Manchester United's goalkeeper position has always been worrying since Manchester United spent £43 million to introduce Onana from Inter Milan. The goalkeeper who replaced De Gea performed ups and downs. Although he completed 24 clean sheets, he also made frequent major mistakes.
Sources said: "Judging from the training ground performance, some players think Heaton deserves the opportunity.
He is experienced and has good self-management and is a key member of the team. The other two goalkeepers are currently struggling, so why not let Heaton try it?"
Heaton has only made three appearances since returning to Manchester United in 2021.
