Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana's future has come under scrutiny with the former Ajax star is drawing transfer interest ahead of the summer window despite a lengthy contract
Andre Onana is set to snub the chance to complete a transfer to the Saudi Pro League this summer, unless the club want to see him exit Old Trafford. And Ruben Amorim has already offered his verdict on his No.1.
The former Ajax and Inter goalkeeper was seen as a landmark signing when he arrived at the club. The Cameroon international endured a difficult start to life in the Premier League with some error-strewn performances.
Onana looked to have overcome them, but has seen criticism for his displays against the likes of Ipswich this term. Links to the Middle East have developed amid an inconsistent campaign.
The summer will see Amorim's first true opportunity to shape his squad after being limited to two signings in January. There has so far been no shortage of speculation over signing a goalkeeper but crucially it has been characterised as to bring additional competition for Onana.
Third-choice shotstopper Tom Heaton is set to leave at the end of the current campaign, while back-up option Altay Bayindir faces questions over his future amid links to Sunderland's Anthony Patterson earlier this season, and more recently Joan Garcia of Espanyol.
Onana has three years remaining on his contract having signed for £47million. Nevertheless, it has been reported United have two goalkeepers under consideration to replace the 28-year-old.
Amorim has previously provided supporter for his first choice goalkeeper however, and told him to look to the future. "I think he passed this (stage) in the last year,” the head coach said.
“I don’t know for sure. There was some difficult moments. But this season he did some great saves that save our team and then sometimes has some problems. But that is normal and I think if you look through our team you can find a lot of players with that issue, so I think we are not performing so well as a team and sometimes some players have problems.
“People talk a lot about the second goal from Ipswich. He is waiting for the touch of (Liam) Delap. I think that is really clear, and then the ball continues to the goal, so that can happen.
“We just have to support Andre, like we support all the players, and prepare the next game. Forget about the past and prepare the future.”
Onana is not agitating to leave the club, but is expected to be targeted by the Saudi Pro League this summer. That could yet see United opt to cash in on the 28-year-old star, amid the Red Devils' financial predicament, and then bring in a replacement.

If i was Onana i would go to Saudi Arabia, more money and less stress. Yes there is more prestige to be Man United's number 1 but its not worthy it.
more money less tress? what about your name of the career? in the bin?

I see Onana as a good keeper. Every sport man needs to do somethings to improve so don’t isolate him, our defense is nothing to talk about with the likes of Lindeloff, Dallot. Onana has made some very impressive and important saves this season and I believe he should be encouraged….. We remain UNITED!!!!

Onana is a very good keeper, just look at the recent matches that the team is gaining balance and you will see that Onana is good, when the team is organized he will perform even more better,

Each coach will come and drive a Top player. The one who will soon leave after Onana if at all he leaves will be Bruno. You’ll sell key players and you’ll never still get the balance . Think twice . Onana is not the problem. You guys are suppose to have discovered this earlier before now .

Top picks to replace Obanana 🍌 - De Gea 🇪🇸 (He’s free & would be a great mentor/leader) And then buy - Costa 🇵🇹 - Vandervoordt 🇧🇪 - Restes 🇫🇷 - Lammens 🇧🇪 - Penders 🇧🇪 (signed for Chelsea but could be enticed)

He was never a good goalkeeper …. He’s just lucky man united don’t have any strategic plans in their recruitment department cuz it’s evident they have been signing below average players for high cost high salary with nothing to show for it every match

Onana is one of the best goalkeeper in the lower half of the EPL table. That's his level.
