Overview

• All documents have been signed and countersigned for a season-long loan to Trabzonspor, with multiple reports describing the deal as sealed and completed.
• The agreement carries no loan fee and no option to buy, and Trabzonspor will cover Onana’s wages.
• Onana agreed to the switch after dropping down the pecking order, with Altay Bayindir starting league games and new signing Senne Lammens arriving on deadline day.
• Ruben Amorim sanctioned the exit to avoid keeping four senior goalkeepers and to protect Lammens’ development.
• Onana remains under contract with United until 2028 and is expected to return next summer, with reports also noting a signing-on fee and bonuses boosting his pay in Turkey.
