Manchester United to Sell Onana Permanently

Manchester United are preparing to sell goalkeeper Andre Onana on a permanent basis during the upcoming summer transfer window, as the club reshapes its goalkeeping options following the successful integration of new signing Senne Lammens. The move comes after Onana's two-year stint at Old Trafford, where he arrived from Inter Milan in 2023 but failed to meet expectations amid a series of high-profile errors.

Onana, the 29-year-old Cameroonian international, was loaned to Turkish club Trabzonspor earlier this season after United secured Lammens from Royal Antwerp for 18.2 million pounds in September. During his time on loan, Onana has started regularly, appearing in 17 Turkish Super Lig matches, where he conceded 22 goals and recorded four clean sheets. Despite two years remaining on his contract through 2028, United have no intention of reintegrating him into the first-team squad upon his return. Instead, the club aims to secure a permanent transfer to recoup funds and wages, allowing reinvestment in priority areas such as central midfield and left wing. Interim manager Michael Carrick has approved the departure, viewing it as the optimal solution for the current goalkeeper setup.
