They seek to recruit an alternative assistant to Andre Onana, who faced questions
Rescue goalkeeper Altay Bayindir has only made seven appearances in the past two seasons
Woodman is without a contract at the end of the season.
He would bring an experience in the Premier League of his days in Newcastle, where he appeared four times in the elite, and also had championship stays with Swansea and Bournemouth.
The London native made a name for himself during the U20S World Cup, where he was a goalkeeper of the tournament in 2017, although he never had coherent high -level football.
He also played for Hartlepool, Crawley, Kilmarnock and Aberdeen in loan sessions.
United signed Altay Bayindir as a backup in September 2023, but he only made seven appearances in two seasons.
Bayindir has spent time hurting but was used sparingly even when it is in good shape.
Meanwhile, there were questions about Onana, but Ruben Amorim supported his man in March.
“I think he succeeded in this (scene) last year,” said head coach. “I don’t know with certainty. There have been difficult times.
Ruben Amorim spoke in favor of Onana in March, saying to him to forget the PST ”
“But this season, he made big stops that save our team and sometimes have problems.
“But it’s normal and I think that if you look at our team, you can find a lot of players with this problem, so I think we don’t play as well as a team and sometimes some players have problems.
“People talk a lot about Ipswich’s second goal. He awaits the contact of (Liam) Delap. I think it’s really clear, then the ball continues the goal, so it can happen.
“We just have to support Andre, as we support all the players and prepare the next game. Forget the past and prepare the future.
