Altay Bayindir is delighted with his start to life at Manchester United, even though he has yet to make his debut for the club.
The 25-year-old joined United from Fenerbache in the summer transfer window as the club overhauled their goalkeeping department with the addition of both him and Andre Onana.
Erik ten Hag made Onana his first choice to replace David de Gea, with Bayindir chosen as an experienced backup option following the sales of both Dean Henderson and Nathan Bishop.

It is a league that gives pleasure to the spectators. It is a little different in our country.
