Andre Onana permanent transfer to Trabzonspor in jeopardy

Manchester United’s goalkeeping situation continues to generate uncertainty, with fresh developments emerging from Turkey.

Andre Onana’s long-term future has already been the subject of debate in recent months.

In January, discussions surfaced regarding a potential return to Inter Milan, while interest from Turkey intensified last autumn when Trabzonspor were understood to be keen on retaining goalkeeper beyond his initial spell.

Now, that possibility appears to be under serious threat.

According to Turkish-Football, Onana’s permanent transfer to Trabzonspor is in jeopardy following a difficult performance in a 3-2 defeat to Fenerbache.

The Manchester United goalkeeper conceded three goals from three shots on target – a statistic that has reportedly raised concern within the club’s hierarchy.

Sources cited in the report suggest that Trabzonspor’s board are increasingly unlikely to pursue a permanent deal unless there is a marked improvement in form.

The Cameroonian international has become a focal point for criticism following what has been described as a “nightmare” outing.

Manager Faith Tekke is now said to be considering changes ahead of the upcoming fixture against Gaziantep, with rotation in goal under discussion.

Onana’s position in the starting XI could therefore be at immediate risk if performances do not improve quickly.

There are also suggestions that the club may look internally for solutions.

Young goalkeeper Onuralp is reportedly being assessed as a viable option, with coaching staff believed to view him as physically prepared for Turkish Super Lig demands.

For Manchester Untied, this situation adds another layer of complexity to Onana’s future.

With interest previously emerging from multiple directions, a failure to secure a permanent move in Turkey could reopen questions about his next destination once the current arrangement concludes.

As scrutiny intensifies, the coming fixtures may prove decisive in determining whether Onana’s stay in Turkey becomes permanent – or comes to an abrupt end.
