Matěj Kovář has had a great season. He won the title for Prague Sparta during his guest season, but he won’t be back. Manchester United wanted a sum for him that the Czech champion was unable to pay. What’s next for the promising goalkeeper?

As soon as last season ended, it was clear. Sparta wanted to keep their number one. But Matěj Kovář started his preparation with Manchester United, played a few friendly matches and impressed the fans.

The Red Devils themselves had to deal with the goalmouth situation. Long-time number one David De Gea left the club, Andre Onana was signed. There was speculation that the 23-year-old Moravian could fight for the number two position.

In the end, that won’t happen. However, Sparta could not wait to see how the English big club would decide with the promising goalkeeper. It solved the situation in its own way and brought in another number one. However, it seems that Smith will not stay at Old Trafford and so he has to solve his future as well.

As there is interest in the young goalkeeper, Manchester United are willing to sell him. But according to iDNES, a sum of between seven and ten million euros has put off two clubs from the German Bundesliga.

So what options are in play? Aston Villa, who currently have an interesting squad and with it considerable ambitions, are interested in the player. However, the number one of the Birmingham team is the world champion Emiliano Martinez and the role of the number two is held by Robin Olsen.

The 14th team of the last season in the Spanish La Liga, Cádiz, is also reportedly interested. Another guest appearance has not been ruled out. Kovar could get a chance in the second league team Hull City.

In any case, the 23-year-old goalkeeper made an impression in Sparta and showed interesting potential. He shouldn’t be short of offers. According to inFotbal, Belgian side Anderlecht were also interested in him, but they ended up getting another goalkeeper.
