£43.8m star expects to stay at Man United amid 'tentative interest from Saudi'

Manchester United are expected to make several changes to their squad this summer.

Andre Onana is one of the many United players who face an uncertain future.

According to the ESPN journalist Rob Dawson, Onana is under the impression that he will be at Man United next season.

He has three years left on his contract, and no firm offers have materialised from tentative interest from Saudi Arabia.

The Cameroon international moved to Old Trafford from Inter Milan for a fee of £43.8 million in the summer of 2023.

He endured a disappointing debut spell at United, where he made numerous blunders between the sticks.

He began the 2024-25 campaign with renewed confidence, only to revert to his erratic form by December.

Onana bore the brunt of criticism after his high-profile mistakes led to United’s early Champions League exit in 2023-24.

He also failed to rise to the occasion when Brennan Johnson netted the decisive goal in last month’s Europa League final.

Former United manager Erik ten Hag was convinced to replace David de Gea with Onana, as he preferred a goalkeeper who could play out from the back.

Yet the so-called sweeper-keeper has rarely shown the traits that made him a standout at Inter.

If the right offer comes along, United would be wise to cut their losses and move him on.

Still, the priority this summer lies in fixing more urgent areas across the pitch.

Matheus Cunha has joined United, and the club are now focusing on signing Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford.

Recruiting a new striker is also high on their list after underwhelming displays from Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee.
