Andre Onana Stays Put Despite Shaky Start
Despite a tumultuous introduction to the Premier League marked by several mistakes, Manchester United’s goalkeeper Andre Onana is reportedly not for sale this summer. The 28-year-old Cameroonian, who joined from Inter Milan last year for £47.1 million, is considered integral to the team’s future plans, regardless of manager Erik ten Hag’s tenure.
Red Devils to Reshape Squad with Strategic Sales
With ambitions to revamp their lineup, Manchester United’s Ineos leaders are eyeing a summer overhaul. However, they’ll need to generate funds through player sales due to Premier League Squad Registration (PSR) rules. While most of the squad could be on the market for the right offer, a select few have been deemed indispensable.
Untouchable Trio: Mainoo, Garnacho, and Hojlund
Homegrown talents Kobbie Mainoo and Alejandro Garnacho, both key contributors to United’s FA Cup final triumph over Manchester City, are considered non-negotiable in any transfer dealings. Rasmus Hojlund, the 21-year-old Danish striker who arrived from Atalanta for £72 million, is also tagged as untouchable despite a challenging first season, thanks to his potential.
Star Players Up for Grabs at the Right Price
Outside of the protected quartet of Onana, Mainoo, Garnacho, and Hojlund, other first-team members could be available for transfer. This includes captain Bruno Fernandes, who despite expressing his contentment and dreams at Old Trafford, could be part of the club’s strategic sales if the price is right.
Fernandes and Rashford’s Future in the Balance
Bruno Fernandes has openly shared his love for playing at Old Trafford and his desire to see the club compete at the highest level, aligning with fan expectations. Similarly, local hero Marcus Rashford could be considered for sale, but only for a significant offer and if Rashford himself is open to a move.
Possible Departures and Contract Expirations
The transfer window may also see the exit of other notable players such as Antony, Mason Greenwood, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Christian Eriksen, Casemiro, and Donny van de Beek. Additionally, French players Anthony Martial and Raphael Varane are set to leave when their contracts expire next month, signaling a period of significant change for the club.
