Key Points

  • United set a €45-50m asking price for a permanent transfer.
  • Trabzonspor manager says Onana will decide his own future.

8m with potential add-ons. However, inconsistent performances and errors led United to sign Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp for £18m, prompting Onana's loan to Trabzonspor. He has made 21 appearances for the Turkish club this season.

Trabzonspor vice-president Zeyyat Kafkas told Manchester Evening News that United's asking price is €45-50m, but the club may not meet that valuation. Manager Fatih Tekke, also speaking to Manchester Evening News, said Onana will make his own decision about his future. Onana reportedly believes he will be given a chance to reclaim the starting spot at Old Trafford.

As the figure from Manchester United for the purchase of Andre Onana is in the range of €45-50m, our president has sincerely informed the community in line with Trabzonspor’s realities. I don’t think this information affected Onana at all. Because Onana’s thinking is that if it’s not England, he wants to continue at a club in Europe. His family thinks the same way. The president also wanted to explain Trabzonspor’s reality. However, if the conditions change, the situation changes.

Onana is on loan with us. There have been matches where he didn’t play well. There have also been many matches where he played well. I’m very pleased with Onana’s positivity, not only in terms of performance but also in terms of character. You have transferred from one of the best teams in the world and you have experienced problems. He feels very comfortable here. The chairman’s words reflect Onana’s own thoughts. But this can sometimes change in a match. He is very happy here, but he will make his own decision about his future.
