Goalkeeper Andrre Onana did not play during the pre -season of MU and he was worried in the context of coach Ruben Amorim refused to confirm who would catch the main wooden frame in the opening match of the Premier League against Arsenal.
As revealed by Manchester Everning News (Men) in May, the addition of a new goalkeeper is not in the priority of Man United. Manchester city team is focusing on strengthening the middle line before the transfer period is closed.
However, if pushing all the “redundant”, MU may think of bringing a new goalkeeper. In fact, the Red Devils tried to borrow Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa or contacted Gianluigi Donnarumma of PSG this summer.
The above information made Andrre Onana worried. The Cameroon goalkeeper missed the entire series of friendly summer matches 2025 due to injury, while Altay Bayindir was captured in 4/5 of Man United's friendly matches.
When asked about the possibility of Onana going to Arsenal, coach Amorim said: “Like other players, everyone must take their own position. Therefore, I will not confirm who is the number one. Onana is ready to play. Please wait, everyone will know on Sunday.”
Man United recruited Onana from Inter Milan for £ 47.2 million in July 2023, but the 29 -year -old goalkeeper went through two wrong seasons. Last April, he was even bricked from the list of matches against Newcastle after making two serious errors in the LYON draw in the first leg of the Europa League quarter -finals.
Bayindir, meanwhile, rarely created trust through 10 appearances for Man United. However, he had contributed greatly to help the Arsenal home team in the 3rd round of the FA Cup last season, when successfully blocking the penalties for 90 minutes and shootout.
However, coach Amorim still believes that Onana will progress more than last season. “I think we can do better, both of me as the coach and the players who have been with last year. I fully believe in that,” he said.
