Melanie Kamayou Joins Andre Onana in Turkey After Man United Loan to Trabzonspor

A salary-boosted loan in Trabzon offers the goalkeeper a chance to rebuild.

Overview

  • Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana has moved to Trabzonspor on a season-long loan reported to include a pay rise.
  • His standing at Old Trafford had fallen to third choice behind Altay Bayindir and summer arrival Senne Lammens.
  • His wife, Melanie Kamayou, left their Alderley Edge home and has relocated to Trabzon after being seen departing Manchester Airport with luggage.
  • Kamayou holds a doctorate in pharmacy, models, and co-runs the Andre Onana Foundation focused on health and education initiatives in Africa.
