The reigning Turkish champions are interested in André Onana, the Manchester United goalkeeper, and would be prepared to open talks with the Manchester club, according to AfricaFoot. A starter in the Premier League, the Cameroonian goalkeeper is playing in a team in crisis.
André Onana’s name is back on the transfer market. According to AfricaFoot, Galatasaray are actively interested in the Cameroonian goalkeeper ahead of the next transfer window and would be prepared to enter formal talks with the Manchester United hierarchy. The information, reported by a single outlet, is yet to be confirmed.
Galatasaray assessing the financial feasibility
The Cameroonian goalkeeper, 30, joined Manchester United from Inter Milan. He is the Red Devils’ first-choice goalkeeper in the Premier League this season, according to the Premier League. But the mood has soured: the club are going through a difficult spell, marked by their European defeat to Como and by the questioning of their tactics by senior members of the dressing room.
According to AfricaFoot, the Istanbul club are not merely monitoring the situation: they are prepared to formally open negotiations with the Manchester United hierarchy. A move that signals concrete interest, though formal talks have not yet begun.
The reigning Turkish champions are looking to strengthen their squad to take the next step on the European stage after their recent campaigns. Onana, who has more than 40 caps for Cameroon’s Indomitable Lions, is on the Turkish club’s radar. It remains to be seen whether Galatasaray can meet the salary and transfer fee demands of the Manchester club, a point their directors are assessing, still according to AfricaFoot.
