Manchester United may sign Croatian goalkeeper, Dominik Livakovic as a potential replacement for David De Gea, according to UK Sun.
A team from United were in Croatia to watch Livakovic in the goal during Dinamo Zagreb in Thursday’s 2-0 win over Norwegian side Rosenborg in the Champions League Play-Off first leg.
It is believed that, if De Gea does not sign a new Old Trafford deal, United won’t mind spending between £15m and £20m on the highly-rated Croatia international.
De Gea is yet to put pen to paper on an improved contract that was agreed weeks ago, increasing fears that he will leave Manchester United on a free transfer next summer.

Liverpool considered him when they were looking for a new No 2 to Alisson Becker but the price tag was a factor and they ended up signing Adrian on a free.
Tottenham have also been keeping tabs on Livakovic, who was part of the Croatia squad that finished runners-up at last year’s World Cup.
Livakovic has now taken over from Danijel Subasic as his country’s No 1 and was named the best Croatian goalkeeper this year after winning back-to-back titles with Dinamo.
