André Onana Joins Trabzonspor on Loan
Manchester United goalkeeper André Onana has been loaned to Trabzonspor for a season, as confirmed by the Premier League club.
Onana moves to the Turkish Super Lig after a two-year period of ups and downs at Old Trafford and an irregular start to the season that led him to lose his starting position to Altay Bayindir.
The loan agreement does not include a fee or a permanent purchase option, which means Onana will return to Manchester next summer. Furthermore, United will not have to cover the player’s salary during his loan.
Onana’s decision to leave came after the arrival of Senne Lammens at the club from Antwerp on the last day of the transfer window, after having expressed his desire to stay and fight for a place at the beginning of the summer.
The 29-year-old player joined United in 2023 from Inter Milan for an initial sum of £43.8 million.
The club’s statement said: “Manchester United goalkeeper André Onana has joined Trabzonspor on loan for the 2025/26 season, subject to international clearance and registration.”
The transfer was completed before the Turkish transfer market closed on Friday. We wish André the best of luck.”
Onana played 102 matches with United and helped the team win the FA Cup in 2024.
The Turkish transfer market closes on Friday.
After the international break, United will return to action on Sunday against Manchester City.
