The Cameroonian got an international call to represent his country at the African cup of nations.
Andre Onana is slated to miss six games, but according to ESPN, the African standout intends to approach his country’s FA to seek a reduction in his involvement in the tournament.
Onana aims to partake in the FA Cup clash against Wigan on January 8, while his nation is slated to engage in a friendly against Zambia on January 9 as part of their preparations for the continental trophy.
Onana is negotiating with the Cameroon FA to postpone his departure for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), as per a source informed ESPN.
Onana, a summer acquisition for £43 million from Internazionale, has expressed his intention to participate. However, per a source, he aims to minimize his absence from Old Trafford.
“Cameroon is scheduled for a prelude camp in Saudi Arabia, featuring a friendly against Zambia on Jan. 9. Nevertheless, Onana is eager to be accessible for United’s FA Cup third-round clash against Wigan Athletic at the DW Stadium on Jan. 8.”
Onana is cognizant that Bayindir has the opportunity to become a hero with upcoming matches against Tottenham Hotspur, and he may encounter a challenging task to regain his position upon his return from Ivory Coast.
What's next for man Utd during Onana's absent ?
United also possesses Tom Heaton in their squad, and it will be intriguing to observe the eventual developments and discover whom Ten Hag opts for to substitute Onana.
