Andre Onana has "no problems" after being involved in a road traffic accident on Thursday evening, as confirmed by Trabzonspor president Ertugrul Dogan.
The on-loan Manchester United goalkeeper was driving back from his team's win over Hearts of Midlothian at the time. Onana was reportedly rushed to hospital after being caught up in a high-speed car crash for medical checks before being discharged.
It happened on the Yomra road, near the Turkish city of Trabzon, where his team are based. Onana's family were in the car with him at the time, but he is said to have "no problems" afterwards.

Dogan told local media: "Andre Onana was involved in a road traffic accident earlier this evening. There are no problems with him, and we wish him a speedy recovery."
Reports in Turkey claim that Onana's car was crashed into by another vehicle while travelling at high speed. That impact apparently caused the goalkeeper's car to collide with the vehicle in front of it.
Footage of the aftermath appears to show Onana's car with a damaged front bumper. Debris from the crash seems to be visible across the road, with the two other vehicles shown and people standing around beside them.

Onana kept a clean sheet earlier in the evening against Hearts, being forced into a single save. However, that was a rare quiet outing on the pitch, having made at least six saves in each of their previous three matches.
The Cameroon international made seven in their last Super Lig match against Besiktas, the first of two straight 2-0 wins. Beating Hearts extended their winning streak to five matches across all competitions.
Trabzonspor are fourth in the league, two points off leaders Galatasaray after eight games. They are one of eight teams to win their first two Conference League matches.
Onana joined Trabzonspor on a season-long loan last September and won the Turkish Cup during his time with them. They then re-signed him for another season in early July after playing 33 times across all competitions during his first stint.
He is still under contract at United until the end of next season, so there will be 12 months remaining on his deal this coming summer. However, he has not played for them since August last year.
His last appearance came in the Carabao Cup second-round exit on penalties to Grimsby Town. Onana has made 102 appearances in total for United.
