Andre Onana’s Quick Recovery Halts Manchester United’s Search for New Goalkeeper

Manchester United has decided to cancel plans for signing a new goalkeeper this summer following encouraging news regarding Andre Onana’s recovery. The Cameroonian shot-stopper, who recently suffered an injury during pre-season training, was initially expected to be sidelined for an extended period. This sparked speculation that the club would pursue a replacement in the transfer market.
However, updated medical assessments revealed that Onana’s injury was less severe than originally feared. The initial concern over a significant hamstring issue has been downgraded, and the club’s medical staff has provided a positive outlook to head coach Ruben Amorim and his team. With Onana now expected to recover in time for the Premier League opener in early August, Manchester United sees no urgent need for reinforcements in goal.
Onana’s swift return aligns well with the club’s timeline for the upcoming season, making it a sensible move to hold off on new signings for the position. His presence remains crucial for United’s plans, and the brief recovery period means minimal disruption to their preparations for the 2025/2026 campaign.
In the meantime, Manchester United will rely on their current backup options during the remaining pre-season fixtures. Goalkeepers Altay Bayindir, Tom Heaton, and Radek Vitek are expected to see more game time, offering them valuable opportunities to showcase their readiness and maintain competition within the squad.
