BBC reports that Swansea City goalkeeper Kit Margetson is expected to join Manchester United following the expiry of his contract at the Championship club, with United expected to pay a compensation fee to sign the free agent. Swansea City had stated in their published retained list in May that the club was in discussions with Margetson over a contract extension, but no new deal has since been confirmed. The Daily Mail claimed that both Liverpool and Crystal Palace were interested in the player at points last season.

According to Only Swans, Man Utd have acquired teenage goalkeeper Kit Margetson, the son of ex-Man City goalkeeper Martyn Margetson, from Swansea City. He will spend the 2026–27 season on loan in the National League.

Manchester United are set to sign 19-year-old goalkeeper Kit Margetson from Swansea City. The Wales U21 international spent the previous season on loan at Cymru Premier club Connah’s Quay Nomads. He is expected to be loaned out to a National League club this summer once his transfer is complete. United's interest was not sudden; The Peoples Person relayed a report in March that the club's goalkeeping scout, Tony Coton, was present at a Cymru Premier game to watch the player. Margetson is anticipated to join the club's youth setup due to his limited experience. Other Premier League clubs like Brighton & Hove Albion, Crystal Palace, and Liverpool were also reportedly interested in the player.
