Manchester United could pay €50 million to sign Andre Onana, with Inter Milan likely to consider a sale at that price point.
According to Fichajes, Manchester United will shell out €50 million for Andre Onana. The Cameroonian goalkeeper is also a target for Chelsea, with Inter Milan likely to consider a sale for a huge price. At present, the €50 million fees would tempt the Serie A giants, but there is a long way to go in this saga.
The Andre Onana chase has already turned into a saga, with twists coming in at regular intervals. For Inter Milan, he is a prized asset who could bring in some much-needed funds to improve their financial standing. After a terrific season under his belt, the Cameroonian has plenty of attention from the English sides.
Chelsea were the early pacesetters to sign Onana as they looked out for a new No.1. However, financial uncertainty and some other requirements may have put the need for a goalkeeper on the back burner. Moreover, looking at his price, the Blues have seemingly bowed out of the race.
Manchester United are in pole position as things stand for Onana. The Red Devils have been waiting to see how the David De Gea situation evolves before making market movements. The Spaniard will likely depart on a free transfer after an impasse with the club over a new deal.
With no other reliable option other than Dean Henderson, Erik ten Hag now wants a reunion with Onana. Manchester United have also shown signs of restricted finances in the window, which has seen them and Chelsea linked with alternatives like Illan Meslier.
However, credible reports have pointed to Onana as Ten Hag’s first choice. Manchester United are reportedly willing to pay €50 million to sign the Cameroonian this summer. Inter Milan were hoping for a fee between €40-50 million for the keeper and might accept an offer.
On the profile side, Onana offers something missing in this Manchester United team. Ten Hag knows the player all too well and may end up pushing the club to sign the keeper. Whether they are willing to shell out €50 million remains the question, but there are no doubts about their interest.
