André Onana
Absent from the Manchester United squad for the opening Premier League match, André Onana has received some good news.
This Sunday, Manchester United kicked off their Premier League campaign. After a challenging season last year, the Red Devils were looking to make a strong start at home against Arsenal. Despite a promising opening, United were quickly brought back down to earth.
Indeed, from a corner, Altay Bayindir, starting in goal for Ruben Amorim's side, made a disastrous handling error that allowed Riccardo Calafiori to pounce at the far post. This blunder has already proved costly for United. The mistake is bound to reignite the debate over the goalkeeper position, with André Onana—currently recovering—having been under pressure to leave in recent weeks.
