The Red Devils sent goalkeeping coach Eric Steele to Leverkusen on Sunday to watch Schalke No.1 Manuel Neuer face off against Bayer Leverkusen star Rene Adler.

Both glovesmen have been previously linked with a summer move to United, with Neuer especially in the focus.

Adler and Neuer have long competed for the title of Germany’s best young talent, and before last summer the Bayer man was favoured by Mannschaft coach Joachim Loew. However, a rib injury kept Adler out of the World Cup, and Neuer has since catapulted himself into the spotlight and is considered one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

In addition to Adler and Neuer, United have also been closely linked with Atletico Madrid’s David de Gea and Ajax shot-stopper Maarten Stekelenburg.
