Manchester United have slashed their asking price for goalkeeper Andre Onana to 30 million pounds with Monaco showing interest in signing him.
The Cameroonian, now 29, arrived at Old Trafford with high expectations following a standout season with Inter, including a Champions League final appearance. However, his time at United has been marked by inconsistency, with errors drawing scrutiny from fans and analysts alike.
Last season, Onana ranked 11th in the Premier League for save percentage and secured nine clean sheets, placing him eighth among top-flight goalkeepers. With United conceding 54 goals in the campaign, the club are now open to offers for the goalkeeper, who earns a reported 120,000 pounds per week.
Monaco have emerged as a potential suitor, but according to the Daily Mail, they are reluctant to meet United’s valuation.
Despite interest from Ligue 1, Onana has expressed a desire to stay and fight for his place. Head coach Ruben Amorim, however, has made it clear that no position is safe as the club aim to rebuild after a disappointing 2024/25 season.
“We are going to make that evaluation for any position in the squad,” Amorim said earlier this summer. “We need to improve every position on the field. Goalkeeper is the same; we can work with Andre. He already proved he is a top player with Inter. We have some seasons where we are all underperforming.”
Recent posts on X indicate mixed sentiment around Onana’s future. Some sources claim United are actively seeking a replacement, with Atalanta’s Marco Carnesecchi a reported target for a 34-million-pound bid, though Atalanta are holding out for a higher fee.
Other posts suggest Onana is likely to stay, with no firm offers matching United’s asking price.
Should United move Onana on, Botafogo’s John Victor has emerged as a prime candidate to replace him. Brazilian outlets UOL and Globo Esporte report that the 29-year-old, who has a 6-million-pound release clause, has been on United’s radar since January.
Everton are also in the race for the goalkeeper, while Aston Villa’s Emi Martinez and Atalanta’s Carnesecchi remain linked with potential moves to Old Trafford.
To fund new signings, United are looking to offload several high earners. Marcus Rashford, one of the club’s top earners, has informed the hierarchy of his desire to leave, with Barcelona a potential destination after the Spanish giants missed out on Athletic Bilbao’s Nico Williams.
Rashford, who spent time on loan at Aston Villa in January, is joined by Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho, Antony, and Tyrell Malacia in seeking exits, as United aim to trim their wage bill and reshape the squad for the 2025/26 season.
With the transfer window heating up, United’s goalkeeping situation and squad overhaul remain key talking points as Amorim pushes for a stronger, more competitive team.
