Onana Aims for Manchester United Return, Believes He Can Reclaim Starting Role

Cameroonian goalkeeper Andre Onana is reportedly planning a return to English football club Manchester United this summer, despite significant interest from other teams, according to the BBC. The shot-stopper spent last season on loan at Trabzonspor after losing his starting spot with the Red Devils. This move followed a series of errors in the previous season that drew sharp criticism and ultimately led to his temporary transfer to Turkey. The Cameroonian is determined to make another attempt to convince the club's coaching staff that he deserves a place between the posts and can reclaim his starting position. Following Onana's departure, Senne Lammens became United's undisputed first-choice goalkeeper. He arrived last summer from Royal Antwerp and played 32 matches, conceding 41 goals and keeping seven clean sheets. 

United will begin their pre-season preparations in mid-July, and Onana will be available as Cameroon will not be participating in the World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico. However, the decision on whether he will be included in the pre-season squad rests with the manager. Michael Carrick is expected to be announced as the team's permanent manager in the coming days. United's first friendly is against Wrexham, but Onana has one match before that – the Turkish Cup final between Trabzonspor and Konyaspor.
