As reported by The Sun, Manchester United are looking to sign Bolton Wanderers goalkeeper Jake Turner this summer.

What's the story?

While the big sides in England usually hit the headlines during the transfer window by making big money first team signings, just as important is ensuring there's investment in the brightest young talent available, with a view to the long-term future of the club.

It seems that after making mega-money moves for the likes of Romelu Lukaku this summer, Manchester United are ready to make a move for such a young player.

The Sun reckon the Red Devils want to sign Bolton Wanderers youngster Jake Turner, despite him having not yet made a senior appearance.

The paper say that while they face competition from Everton for his signature, they see him as a potential number one choice between the sticks over the next few years, perhaps replacing the established David De Gea in time.

Who is he?

Obviously without having made a professional start, not much is known about Turner but The Sun say United have been tipped off about his potential by FA coaching staff who have been impressed with the youngster.

He has U18 caps with England, suggesting he's one of the brightest young goalkeepers in England right now.

The 18-year-old has only just recently signed a professional contract with the Trotters and spent last season on the bench waiting for his chance in the first team.

Can United secure an elite youth prospect to complement their big name signings this summer?
