Overview

• United are finalizing a season-long loan for André Onana to Trabzonspor, with travel to Turkey and a medical booked for Thursday, according to multiple reports.
• Deadline-day signing Senne Lammens arrived from Royal Antwerp for around £18.2m, with ex-keeper Ben Foster warning that making the 23-year-old an immediate starter would be a major risk.
• Altay Bayindir has started United’s league matches, leaving Amorim to choose between him and Lammens for Sunday’s trip to Manchester City.
• The club still views a powerful defensive midfielder as the key missing piece and is expected to target one in January, with Brighton’s Carlos Baleba among those linked.
• Turkey’s open window has enabled the outgoing move, with reports saying Onana will earn more there due to tax and bonuses after West Ham considered but did not proceed with a loan before England’s deadline.
