Forgotten Manchester United man Altay Bayindir is reportedly Galatasaray's top goalkeeper target this summer.
The Turkey international, 25, was signed by Erik ten Hag for £4.3million last summer as back-up to Andre Onana - but he has played just one match so far.
That came against Newport County in the FA Cup fourth round when Onana was away with Cameroon at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Ten Hag has picked Onana in goal for every other match United have played this season and reports in Bayindir's native Turkey suggest his stay at Old Trafford could be brief.
News outlet Aspor say Galatasaray - the fierce rivals of Bayindir's old club Fenerbahce - want to sign him in the summer.
They say Bayindir wants to be at a club where he can play regular football - something that doesn't look too likely at United.
Galatasaray's long-serving Uruguayan keeper Fernando Muslera, 37, is coming to the end of his contract and could leave after 13 years at the club.
Aspor say Galatasaray coach Okan Buruk wants a Turkish keeper next, not least because the club need to reduce the number of overseas players in their squad from 14 to 12.
Bayindir might reasonably have expected more regular football for United but Ten Hag has stuck with Onana for every league and cup match when he was available.
He spent four seasons playing for Fenerbahce, so a move across Istanbul to Galatasaray just a year after leaving would not exactly go down well with his former club.
The two clubs are fighting it out for the Super Lig title, with Galatasaray two points clear of Fenerbahce at the summit.
Onana played only one game for Cameroon at the Africa Cup of Nations - the 3-1 defeat to Senegal in the group stage - before being dropped to the bench.
They exited at the last-16 stage following a 2-0 loss to Nigeria and Onana returned to play in United's 4-3 win at Wolves, having been away less than a fortnight.
He has subsequently played in the wins over West Ham and Aston Villa that have revitalised United's bid to qualify for next season's Champions League.
Ten Hag's men travel to Luton Town on Sunday.

Clubs usually don't change keeper. too bad Onana was in very poor form early season and the coach need him to regain confidence. otherwise, Bayindir would be playing the league cup.

That's Manchester United and TEN HAG, they sign players and just keep them , remember we to be knocked out of champions League because of using one goalkeeper . if you two keepers you're in FA cup, champions League, EFL cup and premier League at least you would have made another goalkeeper to go for FA and carabao cup not one keeper for all matches that's why teams like Manchester City, Real Madrid, and other teams which are winning perform well because they don't overplay one player.
