Onana puts MU in a difficult position

Onana makes MU embarrassed.

According to journalist David Ornstein from The Athletic , the difficult financial situation and strict regulations on Profit and Sustainability (PSR) make it difficult for MU to part with the Cameroon goalkeeper, unless they make a profit from the deal, which is almost impossible.

The Red Devils spent more than £47 million to sign Onana from Inter Milan in the summer of 2023. He signed a contract until 2028, with an option to extend for another year. With such a high price tag and top-tier salary, it is almost impossible for MU to find a club that pays enough to make a profit.

If sold at a loss, the club will be charged a loss under PSR regulations. It is important to know that this is something MU is trying to avoid at all costs in the context of unstable finances.

Ornstein asserted: "Unless we receive a huge offer, the possibility of MU selling Onana at a profit is almost zero. And if it makes a loss, it will be counted as a loss under the PSR rule, making the possibility of selling Onana almost eliminated."

With the prospect of selling Onana unlikely, United may have no choice but to bench him if no other team wants to sign him.

Onana made two direct errors that cost United in the first leg of the quarter-final 2-2 draw with Lyon in the Europa League on April 10, before being dropped from the squad for the 1-4 defeat to Newcastle in the Premier League on April 13.

Onana's inconsistent form in goal has left his future uncertain, with some of his Old Trafford teammates reportedly "very frustrated" with the goalkeeper's disappointing performances.

Onana's 2 silly mistakes caused MU to be held to a draw. In the early morning of April 11, MU drew 2-2 away with Lyon in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals.
