Manchester United is going through a turbulent time in their goalkeeping department. The hefty investment made in 2023 for André Onana from Inter Milan is on the verge of becoming one of the recent major failures for the English club.

According to the renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, Manchester United have already reached a definitive agreement with Trabzonspor to offload the Cameroonian goalkeeper.

André Onana moves to Trabzonspor

The operation, initially planned as a loan, now seems likely to turn into a practically forced sale. The 29-year-old goalkeeper is not in the plans of the new coach Rúben Amorim or the sports management, who have been seeking an exit for weeks. With the transfer window in England already closed, Turkey has become the perfect escape route, as the Turkish Super League's signing period extends until September 12.

Onana arrived at Old Trafford as the heir apparent in goal after David de Gea's departure. However, his constant mistakes, poor performance in the Premier League, and the EFL Cup elimination against minnows Grimsby Town eventually sealed his fate. In that match, United lost in a penalty shootout, and Onana failed to save any of the eleven shots, losing all support from the fans and coaching staff.

The move to Trabzonspor would not only free up wage bill but also allow United to close a chapter that has proven disastrous both in sporting and financial aspects. Over 50 million euros invested in a signing that never fully justified its cost.

André Onana has one foot out of Manchester United

Meanwhile, the goalkeeping role at the Red Devils is changing hands. Turkish goalkeeper Altay Bayindir has filled in for the first three matches but has failed to convince. Therefore, the club rushed to sign young Belgian Senne Lammens in the final days of the transfer window, who is expected to become a regular starter soon.

With Onana's departure, a dark chapter in Manchester United's sporting management comes to an end, as their quest for a reliable goalkeeper ended in a failed signing. The pressure of the Champions League, the demands of the English league, and the need for defensive stability have hastened his departure.

Fabrizio Romano confirms that the clubs have sealed the deal, and the final decision now rests with Onana. If he accepts the move to Turkey, United will rid themselves of a player who was expected to be the solution but turned out to be a problem. It seems that the Cameroonian goalkeeper's English adventure has come to an early end.
