Speaking to GGRecon, former England goalkeeper David James said: "Jordan Pickford, when he's playing for England, plays how he would if he played for a big side in the Premier League.
"It's a no-brainer for me that he's good enough to play for a team such as Chelsea or Manchester City. He's shown he has the capabilities to play for a huge club such as those as he can do it for England.
"Why not Manchester United? Pickford plays for Everton and Man United are just down the road. If he went there, his off-field disruption would be minimal compared to whether he moved down to London.
"Even though Man United aren't playing in the Champions League at the moment, if they signed somebody like Pickford then you could argue that would give them the ability to compete at a better level."
Man United could find themselves in the market for a new goalkeeper with David De Gea's contract expiring in the summer of 2023 with an option for another year.
Several shot-stoppers have been linked with a move to Old Trafford but Pickford was never one of them. In any case, the Red Devils are looking to offer the Spaniard a new deal.
