André Onana joins Trabzonspor from Manchester United
André Onana has officially completed his move from Manchester United to Turkish giants Trabzonspor after both clubs finalized and signed all transfer documents. The Cameroonian goalkeeper, who joined United from Inter Milan in 2023, departs after a turbulent spell at Old Trafford where he faced heavy criticism for inconsistent performances.
The transfer marks a fresh chapter for Onana, who is expected to become Trabzonspor’s first-choice goalkeeper as the club strengthens its squad for domestic and European competitions. Sources close to the deal confirmed that the negotiations progressed smoothly, with both clubs satisfied with the final agreement.
Manchester United had been open to allowing Onana’s departure after manager Erik ten Hag and the club’s leadership agreed to restructure the squad. Onana’s exit opens space for United to pursue a new goalkeeper, while also reducing wage pressure at the club.
Trabzonspor fans have already welcomed the signing with excitement, viewing Onana as a high-profile addition who brings international experience and proven ability despite his struggles in England. The goalkeeper is expected to join training sessions in the coming days ahead of his official debut.
