Man Utd could have to keep Andre Onana as their number one goalkeeper for another season as hopes of \u201ca profit are almost non-existent\u201d.<\/p>\n
The Red Devils have had a season to forget with their 4-1 defeat to Newcastle on Sunday<\/strong><\/a> meaning Man Utd are now 14th in the Premier League table<\/strong><\/a>, below David Moyes\u2019 Everton.<\/p>\n One player who has been particularly poor in recent weeks is Onana with Ruben Amorim dropping the Cameroon international from the squad to face the Magpies over the weekend.<\/p>\n That came after Onana was at fault for both Lyon goals as Man Utd<\/strong><\/a> drew 2-2 against the French side in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final.<\/p>\n Explaining his decision to drop Onana, Amorim told Sky Sports on Sunday: \u201cOf course, you have to see the context. It is a normal thing. Sometimes, you have to push the player to play again, sometimes you have to let him disconnect a little bit.<\/p>\n \u201cTomorrow, he will be in training to prepare for the next one [Lyon] so I felt that it was a good time for Andre to disconnect.<\/p>\n READ:\u00a0Bruno Fernandes leads top 10 most overworked Premier League players<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cI think he was okay [about it] because I explained and then, you don\u2019t need to like [it], but you understand because I explain every situation.\u201d<\/p>\n Amorim added: \u201cIt\u2019s a normal situation. You have to manage everything, sometimes people just look at the physical aspect but the mental aspect is really, really important.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s for just one game and we give Altay an opportunity, he deserves it also and then, again, tomorrow is a new life and we will prepare for the next one.\u201d<\/p>\n There have been reports recently that Amorim \u2018wants\u2019 Onana \u2018out\u2019 of Old Trafford<\/strong><\/a> in the summer with\u00a0Espanyol\u2019s Joan Garcia and Real Sociedad\u2019s Alex Remiro among the players linked to replace him.<\/p>\n MORE ON MAN UTD FROM F365:<\/strong> But The Athletic\u2018s David Ornstein insists that a sale is unlikely as the possibility of making a profit on the \u00a347.2m they paid in 2023 for Onana is \u201calmost non-existent\u201d.<\/p>\n
