In July, United paid £47.2 million to capture Onana from Inter Milan, who was David de Gea’s replacement as the club player of the year four times.
Nevertheless, despite high hopes upon his arrival, the Cameroon international was chipped from 50 yards in his Old Trafford debut against Lens. He then committed a number of mistakes that led to the team’s dismal performance in the Premier League and elimination from the Champions League group stage.
Onana’s performances didn’t get much better until he got back from the Africa Cup of Nations in February. Despite the occasional error, he is now thought to be one of the more dependable players in manager Erik ten Hag’s team.
