The goalkeeper remained with Manchester United this season and has since been given his chance to claim the No 1 spot with David de Gea in Spain following the birth of his daughter.

The manager led the club from League One to the Premier League and almost into Europe before the lockdown derailed the Blades’ 2019-2020 campaign.
But after a ninth-placed finish last season, Sheffield United are rock bottom of the table and 12 points adrift.
Wilder did not take training on Friday ahead of Sunday’s game at Leicester and his scheduled Friday press conference was cancelled.
