Andre Onana's football career at Manchester United may continue

According to The Sun: Andre Onana may still remain at Manchester United, even though he has transferred to the Turkish club Trabzonspor on loan for the 2025-26 season.

The goalkeeper hinted at his desire to stay in Manchester and does not plan to move his family to Turkey.

He was partially to blame for the goal conceded by Trabzonspor, but managed to redeem himself and earned the Player of the Match title. Getty

The entire family of the 29-year-old player will remain in Manchester while he plays in Turkey.

The Cameroonian's children will stay in Manchester, while Onana's wife, who accompanied him to Turkey, plans to return to Manchester this week and will visit him only occasionally.

It is known that the goalkeeper wants to maintain a small circle of communication in Turkey and focus on football.

He has two more years remaining on his contract with Manchester United, and he initially received an invitation from Galatasaray, but the club's management rejected the offer.

However, later in the transfer window, after signing Senne Lamens, the club became more open to Onana's temporary departure.

At that time, only two transfer windows remained open in Europe – Turkey and Russia – and Onana was able to negotiate favorable conditions for his year outside Old Trafford.

Sources close to the player claim that he is determined to restore his reputation this season.

Even after a significant mistake, he received the Player of the Match title in his debut game against Fenerbahce over the weekend.

At the start of the match, the 29-year-old player encountered difficulties and failed to save a shot that resulted in a conceded goal. However, he managed to show excellent performance later, despite Trabzonspor's defeat.

Onana made eight saves and, despite his early mistake, received the Player of the Match title.

Sources from Manchester report that a series of high-profile mistakes have negatively impacted his reputation, even though he played well overall for two years at the club.

A public conflict with Nemanja Matic, a close friend of David de Gea, who described him as “the worst goalkeeper in Manchester United's history,” has not helped his reputation either.

At this point, Onana hopes that a year in Turkey will help restore his confidence.

Onana and Trabzonspor hope he can improve his game in the next home match against Gaziantep, which will take place next week.

This situation lays a significant foundation for Onana's career, as a successful period in Turkey could be an important step in his return to the forefront of football. Therefore, it is crucial for the player not only to adapt to new conditions but also to prove himself on the field to regain the trust of fans and the club.
