Manwan: Onana has recovered, but Manchester United coach Amorin has not confirmed his first-round Premier League start
But when the reporter asked Manchester United coach Amorin whether he would let Onana start in the first round of the Premier League, Amorin replied: "Like other players, everyone must work hard to win the starting position. So I will not say whether there is a player who is sure to start. He is ready to participate in the game, let's wait and see, and everyone will know on Sunday."
Onana, 29, a Cameroon goalkeeper, transferred from Inter to Manchester United in the summer of 2023, with the transfer fee reaching £47.2 million. However, during his two seasons at Manchester United, Onana has made frequent mistakes, which has attracted criticism from the media and fans.
But another goalkeeper in Manchester United team, Altay Baindel, only started 10 times for the team, and his performance is also unconvincing. However, in the third round of the FA Cup last season, Altay Baindel started for Manchester United, helping Manchester United defeat Arsenal in a penalty shootout. At that time, Altay Baindel saved Odgao's penalty in the 72nd minute of the game, and saved Havertz's penalty in the penalty shootout. In the first round of the Premier League this season, Manchester United faced Arsenal again. Perhaps Altay Baindel would be more confident when facing this opponent.
Amorin also said: "I think we can do better than last season, including myself as a coach and the players on the team last season. I am full of confidence in this."
The Manchester Evening News also revealed that Manchester United is also considering the possibility of introducing another goalkeeper this summer and trying to loan Argentina goalkeeper Martinez from Villa. However, Manchester United will not seek to sign Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Donaluma at this time.
