Man United's €50 million Onana replacement is the result of a "probe" into the Old Trafford failure.

By D one

If Andre Onana, the much-maligned custodian, decides to leave Old Trafford this summer, Manchester United has supposedly found the perfect successor. 

In an eye-catching move, Manchester United paid Inter Milan £47.2 million (€55 million, $63.5 million) to capture Cameroon international David de Gea after failing to decide to extend his contract after the 2022–2023 campaign.

However, many would contend that Onana has failed at the Red Devils in the present, as the 29-year-old has committed several high-profile errors in the last two years.

Rumour has been circulating that head coach Ruben Amorim does not trust the 6' 3" goalie and that a new keeper might be in goal next season after United's defeat to Tottenham in the Europa League final in late May. 

Journalist Gianluca di Marzio now asserts that Monaco has "enquired" about Onana and that United may pursue Marco Carnesecchi of Atalanta if he departs in the upcoming weeks and months.

According to the rumour, the Red Devils have contacted the keeper's agent initially, but not the Italian team, who Tuttomercatoweb (via Sport Witness) estimates is worth about €50 million (£42.8 million, $57.6 million). 

Key players Ederson and Ademola Lookman may be traded this summer, thus the Serie A team is reportedly eager to collect the most price for their academy product.

Seasonal differences between Onana and Carnesecchi

As of April of this year, no keeper had committed more mistakes that resulted in goals for Premier League clubs across all competitions since the 2023–2024 season began than Onana (eight).

Additionally, Onana broke an unwelcome record this season by becoming the only player to play for three separate teams to make it to the European finals without winning any of them. 

He was beaten by Manchester City to win the Champions League title in 2023 while he was at Inter, lost the Europa League final against United while playing for Ajax in 2017, and finished second for the Red Devils against Spurs in the Europa League last month.

On the other hand, the 6' 5in Carnesecchi helped Atalanta earn a spot in the Champions League for the upcoming season by keeping 18 clean sheets in 44 games. 

In contrast to Onana, whose stock is declining, his is increasing. Although the former Italy Under-21 player is coveted, it is unclear if he will quit the Italian team.

Manchester United’s summer shake-up is well underway—and the transfer merry-go-round is spinning faster than ever. While Marcus Rashford has already sealed a surprising loan move to Barcelona, all eyes are now on another big name: Antony . The Brazilian winger's future at Old Trafford hangs in the balance, and with his European options dwindling, Saudi Arabia’s top clubs are now preparing to swoop in. Let’s break down what’s really going on, who wants Antony, why his dream return to Spain has fallen apart—and how it all fits into United’s wider transfer drama. Antony Could Be Next Out the Door at Man Utd Manchester United look set to enter the new season with a very different squad from last year. Rashford’s departure was just the beginning. Now, Antony , Jadon Sancho , Alejandro Garnacho , and Tyrell Malacia are all believed to be on the exit list. Among them, Antony has become the center of the latest transfer buzz. Although his preference was to remain in Europe, especia...

According to several journalists and commentators, Liverpool is "close" to reaching a personal terms deal to recruit Marc Guehi. However, the Reds have been cautioned that the acquisition of the England player may mean the exit of an Arne Slot favourite. Even though the Premier championship champions won the championship by a margin of ten points during Slot's first season as manager, the Dutchman is still going after the transfer market this summer.  Milos Kerkez will join Giorgi Mamardashvili (who signed a deal last summer), Jeremie Frimpong, Armin Pecsi, and Florian Wirtz as new Liverpool players after his transfer to the club was finalised and an announcement is anticipated soon. Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes are far from finished, even though they have signed five players.  It is increasingly thought that they still want two more before the market closes on Monday, September 1.  Additionally, they are still keeping an eye out for a new striker and defende...

Fabrizio Romano confirms the unexpected fresh Antony inquiry as the Manchester United outcast selects his next team.

After a surprising Serie A team approached for the services of undesired winger Antony, Manchester United's ambitions of starting a bidding war over him are gaining momentum. Fabrizio Romano has also made it clear where the Brazilian sees himself next season. The 16-time Brazil captain hardly ever gave the Manchester United supporters any proof of why Erik ten Hag had persuaded the board to pay the second-highest sum in the club's history for the winger when he went from Ajax in the summer of 2022. It was not surprising when the Red Devils let him go after he had a dismal return of 17 goal contributions (12 goals, five assists) in 96 appearances. He spent the final half of the 2024–25 season on loan at Real Betis. However, the player's confidence was greatly boosted by the move to La Liga, and Antony found a manager in Manuel Pellegrini who could bring his hidden brilliance to light.  With 14 goals in just 26 games for the Andalusian team, he helped lead Los Verdiblancos to...
