Manchester United is ready to part ways with goalkeeper Andre Onana as discussions with the Saudi Pro League heat up. Sources confirm that the 29-year-old shot-stopper could find his next high-profile adventure in the lucrative Middle Eastern league.

Onana, who was signed for a hefty £47 million from Inter Milan in 2023, has struggled to regain his impressive form, sparking widespread speculation about his future at Old Trafford. The Saudi Pro League continues to emerge as an attractive option for European players, and Onana fits the bill perfectly.

Recent financial challenges have complicated Onana's standing at United. Following the club's failure to qualify for the UEFA Champions League, his salary took a 25% hit—an unfortunate clause connected to the team's European performance.

Desperate to secure a better financial future, Onana requested a new contract, but new manager Ruben Amorim has given him the green light to explore opportunities elsewhere. Amorim envisions a fresh direction for the team, prioritizing a formidable new goalkeeper that aligns with his tactical philosophy.

With the arrival of talented Belgian keeper Senne Lammens, Onana’s position is increasingly precarious. Despite his renowned ball-playing skills, he’s faced criticism due to inconsistent performances and costly mistakes.

As he weighs his future options, the Saudi Pro League stands out as a promising escape route for Onana, who could benefit from the league's ambition and financial support. Several clubs in the league are keen to add established European talent like him, and discussions are ongoing.

Onana's future remains uncertain as the January transfer window approaches, but it’s clear that he and Manchester United may soon part ways.

United's Transfer Activity: What's Next?

In other transfer news, Manchester United has been exploring the possibility of signing Atletico Madrid midfielder Conor Gallagher. However, while United was keen to secure him on loan, Atletico only agreed to sell him outright.

Furthermore, TEAMtalk reports that the Red Devils are preparing to target a new midfielder in January, with plans to go after Carlos Baleba after a failed summer bid. Additionally, a £200,000 weekly demand and a £40 million asking price from Aston Villa deterred United from pursuing Emi Martinez, leading them instead to acquire Lammens just before the deadline.
