The Premier League giants are reportedly getting ready to turn back the clock on the Red Devils, who are rumored to be planning a humiliating U-turn in the goalie department.
Over the course of the summer, they let the Spanish goalkeeper De Gea to leave as a free agent, and they eventually committed £48 million ($58 million) in Onana, who is a Cameroonian international.
After making a number of costly errors, Onana was able to partially redeem his reputation with a crucial penalty save in stoppage time during a Champions League match against FC Copenhagen.
However, the new No. 1 at Old Trafford has struggled to replicate the efforts of his predecessor.
DID YOU SEE THIS?
It has been reported by The Sun that United are prepared to acknowledge that they have made a mistake by allowing De Gea to depart the club.
Despite the fact that he is still without a club, efforts are being made to bring the 32-year-old back to Manchester.
Previously, De Gea was a member of the Red Devils for a period of twelve years, during which time he became the club’s all-time record holder for clean sheets and made 545 appearances.
WHAT ARE THE NEXT ACTIONS?
Because Onana is scheduled to leave for international duty at the Africa Cup of Nations in January, United is hopeful that De Gea will agree to return on a short-term agreement. Onana is scheduled to leave for the tournament.
During the summer, they also recruited Altay Bayindir; however, he is a first-year player in the Premier League, and the Red Devils are looking for another established talent to cover for Onana and possibly compete with him.
