Intermediaries have reportedly offered West Ham United to sign 29-year-old Cameroonian international Andre Onana from Manchester United in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on United in Focus, West Ham United will have the chance to sign Andre Onana from Manchester United in the summer transfer window. The Hammers are scouring the market for another goalkeeper despite landing Mads Hermansen this month. So, the 29-year-old shot-stopper may be an option for the East London outfit.
However, Fabrizio Romano has refuted Onana’s links with West Ham United, suggesting no talks have taken place over a possible loan deal. Additionally, the reputed Italian journalist has claimed that Senne Lammens’s potential arrival at Old Trafford does not necessarily mean the former Ajax goalkeeper will leave Manchester United in the final days of the summer transfer window.
Andre Onana has blown hot and cold since joining Manchester United from Inter Milan in a deal worth €51 million in July 2023. Erik ten Hag’s decision to replace the legendary David de Gea with the 29-year-old shot-stopper created a divided fanbase. While the former Ajax star has shown flashes of brilliance in his two campaigns thus far with Manchester United, he has also been calamitous between the sticks.
The Cameroonian international has made 100 appearances thus far for Manchester United while keeping 24 clean sheets and conceding 148 goals. Meanwhile, Onana faces an uncertain future at Old Trafford after Ruben Amorim preferred Altay Bayindir over him in the first two matches of the 2025/26 season.
What next?
Recent reports have suggested that Ruben Amorim has made a binding decision on Andre Onana’s fate, with the Manchester United manager ready to sanction his departure in the final days of the summer transfer window. Since then, several clubs have shown interest in the experienced shot-stopper, with West Ham United having the opportunity to secure his services in a late move.
The Hammers have already reinforced their goalkeeping unit by signing Mads Hermansen from Leicester City earlier in the summer transfer window. However, West Ham will be open to landing another goalkeeper, with Graeme Bailey claiming that intermediaries have offered the former Ajax goalkeeper to the East London outfit.
However, Fabrizio Romano has refuted the West Ham links, insisting that talks are yet to begin over a move for Onana. Additionally, the reliable Italian journalist has revealed that Senne Lammens’s potential arrival at Manchester United does not necessarily mean the 29-year-old Cameroonian international will depart from Old Trafford.
