Andre Onana shocked by wage cut after Man Utd fail to qualify for the Champions League

Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana was reportedly left shocked by his wage cut this season after the club failed to qualify for the Champions League.

The 29-year-old Cameroonian goalkeeper has endured a dreadful season that reached a new low last week. He was dropped for the game and replaced by Altay Bayindir before their 4-1 loss to Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon.

Yesterday he arrived at training alongside his agent who may be looking to negotiate a way out of the club with reports suggesting a move to the Saudi League is on the cards.

Now, it has been reported that Onana was left shocked by his wage cut after United only managed to qualify for the Europa League last season. 

According to The Athletic, Onana’s reduced wage shocked him and even led to him speaking to now-departed sporting director Dan Ashworth about the issue. His frustration with his new wage alongside being dropped in the first team looks like a summer move is on the horizon. 

Journalist Fabrizio Romano spoke on his YouTube channel about how the Saudi League could be his saving grace. 

“For Onana in general, the situation can be one to watch in the summer transfer window because I told you in January that Onana signed with a new agent. The agent is Fali Ramadani, Lian Sports, so he decided to trust Ramadani to take care of his future in January. 

“There is interest from the Saudi Pro League since he was at Inter, but he preferred a move to Man Utd. He had this dream to play for Manchester Man Utd. Now I can say that the interest from the Saudi Pro League is still there for Onana. So there is still strong interest.”
