Manchester United’s summer overhaul is already heating up, and major decisions between the sticks could be on the cards.
Ruben Amorim’s full debut season at Old Trafford will be defined by who he trusts to wear the gloves, especially with Andre Onana’s long-term future now in serious doubt.
Onana, whose erratic form last season left fans divided, is expected to miss a large chunk of next season due to AFCON commitments with Cameroon.

With the new Premier League fixture list released and United facing a daunting start, Amorim is under pressure to ensure defensive stability.
United’s ambitions for a strong rebound demand more than hope—they require experience, composure, and consistency between the posts.
And that’s exactly what the club is now pursuing, with reports from South America claiming talks have officially begun with Aston Villa’s Emiliano Martinez.
According to Doble Amarilla via X, Manchester United have made formal contact with the Argentina international’s representatives, laying the groundwork for a potential blockbuster transfer.

The Red Devils are believed to be targeting Emiliano Martinez as their first-choice goalkeeper for the upcoming season, capitalising on the 31-year-old’s desire to remain in England.
His family are reportedly reluctant to relocate outside the UK, a factor that could tip the scales in United’s favour despite interest from Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Galatasaray.
Martinez has established himself as one of the Premier League’s elite since joining Aston Villa in 2020.
He’s made 201 appearances and produced countless standout performances, including the league’s Save of the Season in 2023/24.
Though silverware has eluded him at club level, the World Cup winner remains a symbol of calm under pressure—qualities United sorely lacked last season.
Lisandro Martínez will be expected to play a key role in convincing their compatriot to join them at Old Trafford.
With Onana’s situation unresolved, United may be preparing for a swift change—one that could bring another World Champion to the Theatre of Dreams.
