DANIEL BACHMANN is reportedly close to sealing a dream move to Manchester United.
The Reds are said to be in talks with Watford to sign the Austria No.1.
Bachmann, 27, was on loan at Kilmarnock just three years ago.
He signed in the summer of August 2018 under Steve Clarke.
He joined on loan from the Hornets in order to gain more first team minutes, but he had to bide his time, with Jamie MacDonald the Ayrshire club's first choice at the time.
The Austrian eventually found himself to be No.1 at Rugby Park - playing a vital role in helping the club to finish third that season.
Since then, Bachmann has experienced Premier League and Championship football with Watford, as he competed with Ben Foster for the gloves.

The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
