André Onana, currently on loan at Trabzonspor in Turkey, could be a key figure in the upcoming transfer window. His performances in the Turkish Super Lig have earned him the nickname "THE WALL" by fans. However, his salary of 17 million euros per season could prevent Trabzonspor from extending his contract beyond one season.
A return to Manchester United therefore seems likely for Onana, where he is still under contract for two seasons. Despite a difficult departure and the emergence of Senne Lammens as the starting goalkeeper at Manchester United, Onana is reportedly determined to fight for his place. The arrival of a new coach, Michael Carrick, and the relative stabilization of the team could complicate his return.
Onana has always been a competitor, overcoming challenges at Ajax Amsterdam and Inter Milan to establish himself as a starter. He is said to be motivated to regain his place at Manchester United. However, sources indicate that Manchester United may not intend to reintegrate him into the first team and may look to sell him.
Several European clubs are reportedly interested in Onana, including Inter Milan and Bayern Munich, who may be looking for new goalkeepers. Inter Milan has not forgotten his contribution to their journey to the Champions League final in 2023. Bayern Munich could see him as a potential long-term replacement for Neuer. André Onana's future remains uncertain, torn between a possible battle for his place at Manchester United and the interest of major European clubs.
Onana's market value is estimated to be around 15 million euros in February 2026. His statistics in Turkey show an improvement compared to his Premier League performances, with a higher save percentage. Onana has played 20 matches in all competitions with Trabzonspor, conceding 30 goals and keeping 4 clean sheets.
