Wikipedia post I just read now:

"On 1 May 2010, Manchester United completed the pre-contract agreement to sign Westwood in the summer for a undisclosed fee. It is thought he will replace the aging Edwin Van der Sar and become the clubs long term number one."
 
Is there any truth to this?  I have no citation or outside confirmation (but it's damned exciting, if true).

Why would United want to sign Westwood anyway ? He's no better than Kushcak or Foster.

Nothin re United there.
Only remnant is his career profile on the right of the page.

[edit] Manchester City

Westwood started his career at Manchester City where he never played a first team game and was released as he had David James and Nicky Weaver in front of him.

[edit] Carlisle United

Westwood then joined Carlisle United, becoming the understudy to Matt Glennon. Although he played in most cup games, in March 2005, when Glennon was injured, Westwood played some Conference games for Carlisle before being replaced by the fit-again Glennon.

In the 2005-06 season, Glennon left Carlisle and they signed Anthony Williams as his replacement. It looked like Westwood would be the club's number two goalkeeper again, though he finally got his chance to compete for the number one shirt and he succeeded in taking his chance. He started 35 League Two games in their title season and continued to be the club's number one goalkeeper. At the end of the 2007-08 season in League One, Westwood was named in the PFA Team of the Year and also won all of the club's Player of the Season awards.

[edit] Coventry City

On 18 June 2008, Westwood signed a three year contract with Championship club Coventry City for an undisclosed fee.[2] Westwood was named in the Championship PFA Team of the Year for 2009 after many excellent displays for Coventry City in his debut season at the club. He was also awarded the South Wales Supporters' Club's Player of the season award for 2008/2009.

[edit] International career

On 17 May 2008, Westwood was called up by the Republic of Ireland to attend their training camp in Portugal after impressing against Leeds United in a championship match.[citation needed] Three days later he made his debut as a second half substitute in a practice match against Portuguese club Lagos, replacing Joe Murphy after 66 minutes.[3]

Westwood made his first appearance for Ireland in a friendly against Nigeria in May 2009.[4]

Confused


Keiren Westwood (born 23 October 1984 in Manchester, Greater Manchester) is an English-born Irish footballer who plays as a goalkeeper. He currently plays for Coventry City, he will join Manchester United on 1 June 2010. He qualifies to play for the Republic of Ireland national team by virtue of an Irish born Grandmother. Keiren married his wife Danielle in Edinburgh in June 2009 in a Catholic ceremony.[1]
