Thankfully, the Cameroon international was later discharged having been checked over.

The incident occurred following Trabzonspor's 2-0 win over Hearts Conference League on Thursday night - in which he kept a clean sheet.

What happened to Andre Onana?

With his family in his car, it has been claimed that his luxurious silver vehicle was rear-ended at high speed.

This then led to Onana's vehicle to shunt into the back of another driver.

Emergency services arrived quickly on the scene on the Yomra road, near Black Sea resort Trabzon.

In images taken from the incident, Onana's front wing could be seen badly damaged.

Debris from his motor was also on the road.

What has been said about Andre Onana's accident?

Trabzonspor president Ertugrul Dogan later spoke to local media where he allayed any fears that Onana had suffered any serious injuries.

It remains to be seen whether Onana will be given the all clear to feature in Trabzonspor's upcoming clash away at Rizespor on Monday.

How has Andre Onana fared at Trabzonspor?

A fan favourite at Papara Park, Onana returned to the club in the summer following his impressive loan spell last season.

The ex-Inter Milan star featured in 33 games in all competitions - helping Trabzonspor win a first Turksish Cup in six years.

His form has continued this campaign, where he has started in each of their eight Super Lig fixtures.

Sitting in fourth spot - three points adrift of leaders Galatasaray - Onana has kept four clean sheets in his last five league outings.

He even saved a penalty in last week's 4-2 victory against KuPS in the Conference League - while also conceding directly from a corner.
