There has been much speculation surrounding Andre Onana's future at Manchester United, as he only has three years left on his contract. After a season filled with high-profile errors, there are doubts about whether he will still be at the club next season. Reports suggest that manager Ruben Amorim is considering replacing him, and there is interest from Saudi Arabian clubs to offer him a way out of Manchester.
Recently, Onana was asked about his future at an event in Burkina Faso by journalist Stéphane Bassalia Ouattara. He responded, "Will I leave? I don't know, we'll see!" This statement has only fueled the rumors about his potential departure from Old Trafford. Onana was signed by United in 2023 for a hefty fee of £47 million, with the intention of him being the long-term replacement for David de Gea.
Despite making some remarkable saves during his time at United, Onana's performances have been overshadowed by costly mistakes. In the 2024-25 season, he was twice nominated for the Premier League Save of the Season, but his errors have caused concern among the club's hierarchy. His first season at the club saw him make glaring mistakes in their Champions League campaign. And last season, he made costly errors against Viktoria Plzen, Brighton, Nottingham Forest, and Ipswich, further damaging his reputation.
Onana's high-risk playing style has been criticized, but he remains confident in his abilities and approach. He even clashed with former United midfielder Nemanja Matic after stating that United was "way better" than Lyon before their Europa League game, leading to Matic labeling him as "the worst goalkeeper in the club's history." When asked for his opinion on Onana's statement, Matic responded, "I don't know what to say. As a former United and Chelsea player, I respect everyone, but he needs to think before he speaks. If he was one of the best goalkeepers in the history of United, I would believe him. But statistically, he is one of the worst, so he needs to prove himself before making such bold statements. We will see."
As Onana's contract nears its end, the speculation surrounding his future only continues to grow. With potential replacements being linked to the club, it remains to be seen whether he will remain at United or move on to a new challenge.
