Andre Onana rejoins Trabzonspor on season-long loan from Manchester United

Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana has returned to Turkish club Trabzonspor on a season-long loan for the 2026-27 season. The deal, confirmed by Manchester United, does not include an option to buy. Trabzonspor will fully cover the Cameroon international's wages and pay a loan fee to United, with additional performance-related bonuses factored into the agreement.

Onana's move marks his return to Trabzonspor after a successful loan spell last season. During that period, he featured in 29 matches and was instrumental in helping the Turkish side secure the Turkish Cup, their first such victory since 2020. The 30-year-old goalkeeper joined Manchester United from Inter Milan in 2023 for £47.2 million and still has two years remaining on his contract at Old Trafford.

His sole appearance for Manchester United last season was in an EFL Cup defeat against League Two side Grimsby. His chances of regaining a starting position at United were limited, especially with Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammens established as manager Michael Carrick's first-choice. The club's goalkeeping department may undergo further changes this summer, as backup goalkeeper Altay Bayindir's future is uncertain, and young prospect Radek Vitek is reportedly seeking a loan move for regular playing time.
