Norwich City star Todd Cantwell admitted Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea "read him like a book" during their Premier League clash in January.
The England U21 international has been one of the stand-out performers for the Canaries this season and it has been reported that the playmaker is a target for United, Tottenham and Manchester City in the upcoming transfer window.
MEN Sport, however, understand United have prioritised other targets, with Jadon Sancho, Jack Grealish, James Maddison and Jude Bellingham all under consideration, though Cantwell does fit the profile of player Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is looking to bring to Old Trafford.
Cantwell featured for the Norwich side that was defeated 4-0 at Old Trafford in January and had a golden opportunity to deny United a clean sheet, but De Gea made a fantastic save to keep him out.
The 22-year-old admitted he should have taken a slight step when taking the shot and hailed the Spaniard as a world-class shot stopper.
"De Gea made a fantastic save," he told the a fan TV channel. "He read me like a book. That’s a typical example of ‘I’ve seen it all before son’.
"It was an important part of the game as well. I genuinely felt the connection, everything about the shot felt right.
"As I’ve watched it back he took a slight step. Obviously, that’s the difference between a class goalkeeper and world-class goalkeeper.
"In hindsight I probably should have gone near post. It would have been an amazing place to get a goal to your name, absolutely."
