BREAKING NEWS: Manchester United are now setting their sights on World Cup hero Dibu Martínez as a possible replacement for André Onana
Trouble appears to be quietly brewing at Manchester United as tensions rise behind the scenes under new manager Rúben Amorim. Reports suggest that the Portuguese boss has made his frustrations known to the club’s hierarchy, especially over the defensive frailties — with goalkeeper André Onana now under intense scrutiny.
Amorim is reportedly growing increasingly unsettled by Onana’s lack of consistency, particularly during crucial moments. While the Cameroonian shot-stopper has delivered some impressive displays, they’ve been overshadowed by high-profile errors that have shaken the confidence of the coaching staff.
As a result, United are now eyeing a bold move that could redefine their goalkeeping situation. Emiliano ‘Dibu’ Martínez, the World Cup-winning Argentine and Aston Villa’s star man, is being closely monitored as a potential successor. Martínez’s leadership, penalty-area command, and big-game mentality have made him a standout target should Onana fail to step up before the end of preseason.
Sources say Amorim isn’t interested in protecting reputations — he wants fighters on the pitch. The dressing room atmosphere is said to be shifting as players begin to realise that past achievements and hefty price tags won’t earn them immunity under this new regime.
Initial contact between intermediaries and Martínez’s camp has reportedly taken place, though a formal bid has yet to be launched. Still, the interest is very real, and the message inside the club is clear: perform or be replaced.
With just weeks left before the Premier League season begins, Amorim is wasting no time in making his authority felt. Change is coming at Manchester United — and nobody is untouchable.
