Eintracht Frankfurt keeper Kevin Trapp said on Thursday he had received and rejected an offer to join Manchester United, instead opting to remain at the Europa League champions who are competing in this season’s Champions League group stage.

“There was a lot of talk in the past days about an interest from Manchester United,” Trapp said on social media. “It is correct that I have a written offer.”

“Manchester United are a world-class team and that I consider it and think about is something, I am sure, everyone can understand.

“Yesterday, however, I informed both clubs that I decided for Eintracht.” United coach Eric Ten Haag is eager to bring in another goalkeeper to add pressure on first choice David de Gea, who was a liability in their 0-4 loss to Brentford this month. United did not qualify for the Champions League this season.

They have just three points from their first three matches in the Premier League, with two losses and a win, over Liverpool last week. The 32-year-old Trapp, who played for Paris Saint-Germain between 2015-18, has settled well in Frankfurt since his return, initially on loan in 2018. He has also earned six caps for Germany.

Diaz: Reds not worried

Liverpool have had a slow start this season after failing to win any of their opening three Premier League games but the situation is not “problematic” for the players or manager Juergen Klopp, forward Luis Diaz said.

“It’s been a bit of a difficult start,” Diaz told Sky Sports. “It’s not quite the outset we wanted for the season. “I wouldn’t say it’s problematic for the players or for the manager but certainly we all know we need to do better.” The Merseyside club will be eager to register their first league win when they host Bournemouth on Saturday.
