Despite featuring in last season’s Champions League final, £47.4million Onana has been unable to demonstrate his quality so far at Old Trafford.
After 11 games in all competitions he has conceded 19 goals and has looked error-prone in between the sticks on many occasions.

Onana’s contract at United runs until 2028 but his former club’s CEO has already commented on his potential return to the San Siro.
“I can’t predict the future but in football anything can happen,” Marotta told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“For sure it was great chapter for Onana and for us. It was also a successful deal to sign him for free and sell for that money.”
Onana signed for Inter on a free transfer from Ajax in 2022 but left just a year later in a deal worth around £47.2m including add-ons.

He made 41 appearances at the San Siro side last season and played in all of their Champions League matches.
The Cameroon international also kept 19 clean sheets throughout the campaign, with just three coming his way so far at United.
