Manchester United are trying to offload Andre Onana and Inter Milan are interested
This new season did not start as expected for Manchester United. On Sunday, they lost 1-0 in their first match against Arsenal, and once again, the goalkeeping came under question. In the initial moments, the team showed energy, but then Altay Bayindir’s mistake changed everything.
There was a simple corner, which he could not catch properly, and Riccardo Calafiori scored a goal with a header. After that moment, the team’s confidence broke, and the match turned around. Later, Benjamin Sesko was brought on, and Bryan Mbeumo also tried to create an equaliser, but David Raya made a good save. This start showed that United’s biggest concern is still the goalkeeper’s position.
Andre Onana’s position and latest report
Last season, Manchester United finished 15th in the league and lost the Europa League final to Tottenham. During that time, Andre Onana’s continuous mistakes remained in the news. Now, the report of CaughtOffside has claimed that his future is again in doubt. It is reported that Inter Milan are seriously thinking of signing him again. According to the report, some clubs from Europe and the Middle East are also keeping an eye on the 29-year-old shot-stopper.
Manchester United are trying to offload Andre Onana and Inter Milan are interested.
Andre Onana’s Manchester United future faces uncertainty as Inter Milan push for his return while the club closes in on Senne Lammens.
Onana came to Old Trafford in 2023, and there were great expectations for him as he performed brilliantly at Inter Milan and led the team to the Champions League final. However, his rhythm deteriorated in England. The Cameroon international played 50 matches last season, but his save percentage was one of the lowest in the Premier League. Fans openly expressed displeasure and believed that his mistakes put the team in trouble many times. Apart from this, due to injury, he could not be a part of the pre-season and did not play in the first match against Arsenal.
Inter Milan management believe that his return can give them a new start in Serie A. At the same time, Manchester United’s focus are now on a new goalkeeper and the process of signing Senne Lammens is almost complete. Amidst all this, the question is whether Onana should leave the team now or will he be able to find a place in Amorim’s plans.
Opinion:
If asked whether United should let Onana go or not, the answer is not easy. On the one hand, his mistakes and injuries have repeatedly disappointed the club; on the other hand, the attempt to bring in Senne Lammens shows that the management now wants a change. In our opinion, his problem is not only in adapting to the pace and pressure of the Premier League, but Amorim’s defensive setup has also proved weak. Time and again, the goalkeeper seems to be the only culprit, but the defence has also not given the right support.
As far as Inter Milan’s interest are concerned, a return there could perhaps give new life to his career. However, if he stays at United, he will have to prove himself with his performance. We believe that with seven days left in this transfer window, a deal is difficult, but not impossible. Inter needs and United are ready for change, so the coming weeks will decide whether Onana’s next stop will be Old Trafford or he will be seen in Serie A again. He performed very well at the Serie A club, and hence might get back his mojo at Inter. In other news, Manchester United have been linked with Angelo Stiller, who could be available for just £31.5m in 2026.
