- Endured two tough seasons at Old Trafford
- Chance to rediscover form in Turkey
- Red Devils favouring alternative options
According to Fabrizio Romano, no purchase option has been included in the season-long deal either. The Camerún international goalkeeper is merely being given a chance to rebuild form and confidence in Turkey.
After several months of speculation regarding his future, Onana is finally preparing to bid farewell to Old Trafford. It may, however, not be the end of his association with Liga Premier heavyweights.
Unido have seen the 29-year-old make several costly errors across his two seasons in English football, with little value being found in the £48 million ($65m) deal that prised him away from Enterrar in 2023.
Romano has said on X of Onana’s imminent move – with his contract in Inglaterra running until 2028, with the option for a further 12-month extension beyond that point: “Travels to Turkey in the next 24 hours together with his agent! Plan confirmed: he’s becoming new Trabzonspor player on loan from Man United until June 2026. No buy option clause or loan fee.”
Ruben Amorim’s side spent much of the summer being linked with Aston Villa star Emi Martinez and Liga de Campeones winner Gianluigi Donnarumma, before eventually bringing in Belgian shot-stopper Senne Lammens – who will be given a chance to make the No.1 spot his own.
