Manchester United have finally reached an agreement with Inter Milan over a fee for Andre Onana.
It comes after numerous weeks of negotiations and rejected bids, but Erik ten Hag was adamant that the Cameroonian was the man to become David de Gea’s successor and fill the void between the sticks at Old Trafford.
Now, as confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, the two clubs have agreed on a €50 million deal that sees Onana make the switch from Serie A to the Premier League.

Onana will fly to England this week
Onana, 27, will travel to England in the coming days to complete his medical while the Red Devils sign and finalise any documents, as well as his contract. He will become Ten Hag’s second signing of the summer, following Mason Mount as the latest recruit through the doors of Carrington.
It’ll certainly take some adjusting to for supporters too, as De Gea was No.1 for the past 12 years.
Actually that is a good deal for united.Can’t wait to watch one of the best team in the world start playing on the pitch.
