Manchester United are set to lose their no.1 goalkeeper for a few games in the coming month.

Andre Onana has selected by Cameroon ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations, which begins in January.

Onana is 27 and has played every game so far this season after arriving from Inter Milan.

However, United will now have to rely on another summer recruit in Onana's absence.

Former Red Devils and ex-Cameroon star Eric Djemba-Djemba recently told BBC Sport: "One of the problems for him is even if he plays well over the next month, he then goes away for a month to AFCON. He knows if he goes, maybe he will lose his place at Manchester United. He has to decide what is best for him. He just needs to do what is best for his career.

"When you come to Manchester United, they don't give you time. Only one or two goalkeepers for Manchester City have played like that. They have a coach like Pep Guardiola - he likes the keeper to evolve and play with their feet. At Manchester United, if you are a good goalkeeper with your hands, they will buy you. They don't care if you don't play with your feet."
