The Cameroon international has fallen the pecking order at Old Trafford following the emergence of Senne Lammens, who has established himself as the club’s first-choice goalkeeper.
According to the Daily Mail, United are prepared to sanction another temporary move to Turkey, where Onana impressed during the 2025-26 campaign, helping Trabzonspor lift the Turkish Cup against Konyaspor in May.
Although the club would prefer a permanent transfer to recover part of the £47.2m paid to Inter Milan in 2023, a loan is viewed as the most realistic outcome.
The 30-year-old remains under contract for two more years but is not expected to feature in the Red Devils’ plans, with his high wages and profile making a backup role impractical.
Meanwhile, Lammens’ £21.7m arrival from Royal Antwerp has transformed United’s goalkeeping hierarchy after a standout debut season, leaving the club to search for a new deputy as Tom Heaton stays on and Altay Bayındır faces an uncertain future.
