San Diego –
Manchester United recruit Andrew Onan to replace David De Gea. United manager Erik ten Hag said, Onana would change his team’s game.
MU parted company with De Gea after working together for 12 years. The Red Devils then brought Onana after being redeemed from Inter Milan in a deal that could reach 55 million euros.
Ten Hag’s decision to bring Onana was inseparable from De Gea’s weaknesses. The Dutch manager likes goalkeepers who are good at playing the ball with his feet to start attacks from behind. Skill De Gea doesn’t have that, although the Spaniard has good shot-stopping abilities.
On the other hand, Onana is used to this style of play because she has been trained Eric ten Hang while still at Ajax Amsterdam. The Nigerian international keeper has composure on the ball and has a good pass.
Andrew Onan made his first appearance for Manchester United in a 0-2 defeat to Real Madrid in pre-season. Despite conceding two goals, Onana’s performance received a lot of praise.
“He is a great goalkeeper and has a different profile,” Ten Hag said BBC Sport. “That’s why we wanted to recruit him.”
“With him, something will change in our game.”
Manchester United have not stopped spending after landing Onana. The Red Devils immediately recruited Rasmus Hojlund from Atalanta after reaching an agreement on a transfer fee.
“I’ve been in football for a long time. First, we have to finish something, then we can talk. You have to stay calm and let the professionals work,” Ten Hag said.
