Andre Onana facing uncertain Manchester United future as Ruben Amorim targets two goalkeepers in summer overhaul

Manchester United fans bemoaning Andre Onana’s mistakes could soon be a thing of the past as the club eye up two new goalkeepers.

talkSPORT understands boss Ruben Amorim is keen for a shake-up in the position following underwhelming displays by Onana and Altay Bayindir.

Since Onana joined from Inter Milan for £43.7million in 2023, the Cameroon international has been plagued by inconsistency.

No Premier League goalkeeper has conceded more errors than Onana’s nine across all competitions since his arrival in England.

Two high-profile mistakes came in his last outing against Lyon in the recent 2-2 Europa League quarter-final first leg tie.

Onana parried in Thiago Almada’s whipped in free-kick to gift Lyon the lead, before palming a late strike into Rayan Cherki’s path as the hosts grabbed a dramatic equaliser.

It came just a day after former United midfielder Nemanja Matic – now at Lyon – labelled Onana as the ‘worst goalkeeper’ in the club’s history.

His performance saw him left out of a first Premier League matchday squad for Sunday’s 4-1 defeat at Newcastle.

But Bayindir, who is also in his second season at Old Trafford, failed to impress, notably being at fault for the Magpies’ fourth goal after passing out straight to Joelinton who then played in Bruno Guimaraes.

The shocking collective display leaves United languishing in 14th spot to condemn them to their lowest ever points tally in the Premier League.

All signs point towards a busy summer at the Theatre of Dreams as Amorim looks to build a squad capable of challenging for a Champions League spot.

And with a new number one goalkeeper to potentially be brought in, talkSPORT takes a look at seven players who could be on their radar.

Aaron Ramsdale

The England international linked up with Southampton from Arsenal last summer, but has failed to keep the club in the top-flight.

He has now endured relegation with three different clubs having also done so at Bournemouth and Sheffield United.

But despite what has been a difficult season for the Saints, the 26-year-old has been one of their shining lights.

Despite missing six games due to injury, only Brentford’s Mark Flekken has made more saves than Ramsdale’s 105.

With no errors leading to goals, Ramsdale would not only provide stability, but would add experience in challenging for a Premier League title.

And talkSPORT understands that the player is on United’s shortlist, with it remaining to be seen whether they will formalise their interest.

Zion Suzuki

The Parma goalkeeper is also being chased by United following an impressing campaign so far at Parma.

talkSPORT told you last week how the Red Devils had stepped up their scouting of the Japan international, who is valued at around £40m.

United hold long-term interest in the 22-year-old having previously been keen to sign him in 2023, only for Suzuki to instead join Belgian side Sint-Truiden on loan instead.

Confirming the interest at the time, Suzuki said: “It’s true that there was an offer from Manchester United.

“As a football player and as a person, if I hadn’t thought about anything, of course, I would like to go to Manchester United, but among them, I really want to spend time thinking about what kind of future awaits me.

“Manchester United have acquired Onana. It’s important for me to participate in matches, and I think it is also important to play on the world stage.”

Bart Verbruggen

The Dutchman has cemented himself as Brighton’s number one this season, and is a key reason they are in contention to seal a spot in the Europa Conference League.

He has also established himself as the starting shot-stopper for Netherlands’ national team.

As well as six clean sheets in 30 top-flight outings this term, the 22-year-old has also made 73 saves.

Though with four errors leading to goal, the youngster still has room for improvement.

However, with three years left on his contract at the Amex Stadium, Brighton are in no rush to part ways with him.

But with Bayern Munich also believed to be keen on Verbruggen as a successor to Manuel Neuer, United know they will have to act fast should they wish to secure his services.

Joan Garcia

The Spaniard seems destined for a switch away from Espanyol this summer with a number of Europe’s elite keeping tabs on him.

Arsenal are known to be huge admirers with Mikel Arteta weighing up a move to provide competition for David Raya.

No goalkeeper has made more than Garcia’s 112 saves in LaLiga this term, with his fine form leading to shouts he should be named in Spain’s next national team squad.

talkSPORT’s Ben Jacobs understands than Garcia is on United’s radar having been identified as someone who fits Amorim’s system.

Valued at around £20m, Garcia would also represent great value for money – allowing United to spend heavily in other areas.

And if Espanyol suffer relegation, he would be available for around £12.6m due to a clause in his deal.

James Trafford

Despite plying his trade in the Championship at Burnley, Trafford has enjoyed nothing short of a sensational season.

He has proved instrumental in the Clarets sitting second in table – behind Leeds only on goal difference as the club look set to achieve an instant Premier League return.

Incredibly, the England youth international has kept a whopping 28 clean sheets from 41 league outings.

Trafford failed to concede in 12 consecutive matches from Boxing Day to February 21.

He has shipped in just 13 goals in the Championship so far.

And he could now look for a move away from Turf Moor in his quest to force himself into Thomas Tuchel‘s Three Lions plans ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

Mads Hermansen

Like Ramsdale, Hermansen looks destined for the drop with Leicester sitting 19th in the table – 17 points off safety with just six games remaining.

And though Hermansen has let in 54 goals, he is not the reason why the Foxes are heading for a swift return to the Championship.

And United are known to be admirers, with The Telegraph revealing in January how the club sent goalkeeper scout Tony Coton to watch the Denmark star in action in December’s 2-2 draw to Brighton on home soil.

Leicester boss Ruud van Nistelrooy recently discussed the goalkeeper departing the King Power Stadium.

Asked whether he is a player that could fetch a big fee, the United legend said: “Of course, but the most important thing is to keep your best players.

“That is the target. Let’s see how the coming weeks go in getting aligned.”

Senne Lammens

The 22-year-old has been widely tipped be to Thibaut Courtois‘ long-term successor between the stick for Belgium’s national team.

It’s believed that the Royal Antwerp star is a firm target for United, and the player himself is aware of the rumours.

Speaking earlier this month about the club’s interest in him, he remarked: “The first time I heard it, I thought, ‘Wow, a world team that follows you. That is special.’

“It’s only positive. Especially because it’s the best competition in the world and my profile – my stature and way of playing – is similar to English football.

“You have to physically hold your own there and that suits me.”
