Overview
- Radek Vitek said he wants regular first-team football next season and does not plan to return to Manchester United just to sit on the bench.
- He plans to finish the season with Bristol City and then meet United to decide where he will play in 2026–27.
- The 22-year-old has made 34 Championship appearances with nine clean sheets for Bristol City, highlighted by a standout save at Middlesbrough that drew wider notice.
- He arrived as cover and kept the No. 1 spot, a run that followed Max O’Leary’s injury and the club’s later decision to sell O’Leary to West Brom in January.
- Vitek is under contract at United until 2028, has been in regular contact with goalkeeping coach Craig Mawson, and his role will be set after the season with Senne Lammens also in the mix at Old Trafford.
