Done Deal: Man United Goalkeeper Andre Onana Seals Loan Switch to Trabzonspor
Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana has completed a loan move to Turkish Süper Lig side Trabzonspor, the clubs officially announced on Thursday.
The Cameroonian shot-stopper, who joined United from Inter Milan in the summer of 2023, has endured a turbulent spell at Old Trafford, struggling to replicate the form that made him one of Europe’s most highly rated goalkeepers.
A string of high-profile errors last season placed him under heavy scrutiny, and the arrival of a new goalkeeper this summer reduced his chances of regular playing time.
Trabzonspor swooped in to secure the 28-year-old on a season-long loan deal, with hopes that he will rediscover the consistency and confidence that once made him a Champions League finalist with Inter. The Turkish giants see Onana as a key figure in their push for domestic silverware and a strong run in Europe.
For Manchester United, the move eases the goalkeeping logjam and allows Onana a chance to rebuild away from the intense pressure of Old Trafford. Club officials are understood to have included no obligation to buy in the deal, leaving the door open for his return at the end of the season.
Onana is expected to link up with his new teammates immediately and could make his debut after the international break. Fans in Trabzon have already expressed excitement on social media, welcoming the high-profile signing.
