Andr\u00e9 Onana has joined Trabzonspor on a season-long loan for the 2025\u201326 campaign, temporarily leaving Manchester United for a fresh start in T\u00fcrkiye. According to The Athletic, the deal does not include a fee or option to buy.<\/p>\n
The transfer was completed ahead of the Turkish transfer window closing on Friday, Sept. 12. Manchester United released a brief farewell: \u201cWe would like to wish Andre good luck.\u201d<\/p>\n
Onana\u2019s time at Old Trafford had been difficult in 2024\u201325, a season affected by errors between the posts. Former Red Devil Nemanja Mati\u0107 even labelled the 29-year-old \u201cone of the worst goalkeepers in Manchester United\u2019s history\u201d back in April. Ruben Amorim overlooked Onana in Manchester United\u2019s opening three matches in the Premier League this season, instead opting to start Altay Bay\u0131nd\u0131r. The Cameroon international only got the nod in the Red Devils\u2019 shocking defeat to Grimsby Town in the Carabao Cup.<\/p>\n
Across his spell with Manchester United the goalkeeper made 102 appearances. He arrived from Inter in July 2023 for an initial \u20ac51 million (\u00a343.9 million, $57.4 million) and played a part in United\u2019s 2\u20131 victory over Manchester City in the 2024 FA Cup final.<\/p>\n
Although his contract with Manchester United runs until 2028, Onana will spend at least this season hunting for silverware in the S\u00fcper Lig. Trabzonspor framed the move positively on social media: \u201cA new adventure, a new challenge,\u201d Trabzonspor wrote on X . \u201cWelcome to the world\u2019s greatest city team, Andr\u00e9 Onana!\u201d<\/p>\n
The loan gives Onana an opportunity to reset his career with regular minutes in Turkey while Manchester United move forward without the Cameroon international for the 2025\u201326 season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
