The esteemed Cameroonian goalkeeper, is poised to reclaim his position as the primary shot-stopper for Manchester United. The announcement came during a press conference on Wednesday, where Erik Ten Hag, the Red Devils’ head coach, disclosed that Onana would be the starting goalkeeper in the upcoming Premier League encounter against Wolverhampton.
Onana, who recently concluded his campaign with the Cameroon national team in the Round of 16 of the AFCON2023, has swiftly rejoined his Manchester United compatriots.
Despite featuring in just one match during the continental tournament, the former Ajax player remains steadfast in his role as the premier goalkeeper for the renowned English club.
His return to action is scheduled for the forthcoming clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Coach Erik Ten Hag, addressing queries about Onana’s readiness despite a relatively subdued performance in the AFCON, asserted, “We must consider each match as a final.
I am very positive now that we have our players back. Some people need rhythm, but they had a friendly match, then a cup match; the preparation is quite good.” The coach highlighted the importance of consistency in player selection for fostering team cohesion.
In a moment of affirmation, Ten Hag declared, “André Onana will be back against Wolves,” signaling a positive turn of events for the Cameroonian goalkeeper.
As Manchester United aims to secure favorable results, the return of Onana is anticipated to fortify their defensive prowess and inject renewed vigor into their Premier League campaign.
