Onana looks to remain at Manchester United as Monaco interest surfaces

Onana’s Commitment to Manchester United

Reports suggest that Manchester United goalkeeper André Onana is eager to continue his career with the club, despite recent inquiries from AS Monaco. This French team reached out to Onana’s agents to discuss the possibility of the Cameroonian’s transfer during this summer window.

Interest from AS Monaco

Monaco had also expressed interest in acquiring David De Gea, the former Manchester United keeper, but those negotiations came to an end when De Gea signed a new contract with Fiorentina.

Onana’s Resilience and Future

Onana appears resolute in his desire to remain at Old Trafford, with his future seemingly dependent on the sentiments of head coach Ruben Amorim. The player is scheduled to return for training at Carrington next month and is prepared to participate in the upcoming season with Manchester United.

Contract and Criticism

Having joined the team from Ajax in 2023 under Erik ten Hag‘s management, Onana’s contract extends until 2028. Although he has faced his share of criticism from fans due to mistakes that led to goals, his commitment to the club remains steadfast.

Potential Goalkeeping Targets for Manchester United

Additionally, Manchester United has been linked to several goalkeeping targets during this transfer period, notably including Aston Villa’s Emi Martínez. Sources suggest that Martínez is amenable to joining United, and Aston Villa is under financial pressure to entertain offers for players as they seek compliance with the Premier League’s profit and sustainability guidelines. While Manchester United is aware of Martínez’s situation, no formal discussions have yet occurred with Aston Villa.
