Overview

• Club officials have informed Onana’s camp they want to keep him and expect to open talks with Manchester United at the end of the season.
• Onana has made a positive start in Turkey with two clean sheets in four games as head coach Fatih Tekke highlights his leadership and adaptation.
• Trabzonspor are paying the goalkeeper more than the roughly £120,000 per week he earned at Old Trafford, suggesting personal terms would be straightforward.
• United paid about £47 million for Onana in 2023 and are likely to seek substantial value, with Trabzonspor’s spending limits and the club president’s caution casting doubt on affordability.
• The loan followed injuries and high-profile mistakes that shifted United’s goalkeeping hierarchy toward Altay Bayındır and new signing Senne Lammens.
