Manchester United Sets Sights on Luring Luminous La Liga Goalkeeper to Old Trafford, Andre Onana Faces Frightening Future
It is said that Manchester United is making an unexpected move by interested in Andriy Lunin, a custodian for Real Madrid, as a possible replacement for Andre Onana.
Nacional says that Manchester United has made an offer for Lunin as they get ready for the summer transfer market.
This season, Lunin has done a great job for Real Madrid. He filled in excellently for Thibaut Courtois, who is out with an ACL injury.
Even though Lunin has played well, he knows that Courtois will likely become the first-choice custodian again when he comes back, which is making him think about moving to a different team.
Manchester United is interested in Lunin at the same time that they are looking at their choices for Andre Onana, who has had a disappointing first season with the club as their number one custodian.
Onana moved from Inter Milan to Manchester United last summer for a big fee of ā¬51 million plus ā¬4 million in extras. He had a great time with Inter Milan in the Champions League.
The 27-year-old custodian had a lot of people looking forward to him, especially after his great play in the Champions League, where he helped Inter Milan get to the final.
But Onana’s first season at Manchester United has been full of mistakes, though he has shown signs of getting better in 2024.
He has been criticised for making a number of mistakes that cost Manchester United a lot of points, especially in their Champions League group stage games against Galatasaray, Copenhagen, and Bayern Munich.
Reports from Germany say that Bayern Munich wants to buy Onana as a long-term alternative for Manuel Neuer, their veteran custodian, who will be 38 on July 1.
On the other hand, Lunin’s deal with Real Madrid ends in 2025, which means that Manchester United could sign him if they decide to make a move.
If Manchester United does decide to buy Lunin, they would have a reliable custodian choice as they look to improve their team for the next season.
