What Casemiro was spotted doing to Andre Onana after worrying match footage emerges

It will come as no surprise to anyone associated with Manchester United that the club is hardly an environment conducive to positive working relationships.

From Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s redundancies and Alejandro Garnacho publicly kicking up a fuss on socials after the Europa League final, discord has become the name of the game at Old Trafford.

Is it any surprise that the players are kicking off at each other on the pitch?

Sadly, Ruben Amorim probably had another fire to put out after observing Casemiro and Andre Onana’s tiff on the pitch.

Normally, this is the kind of thing that the players will quickly move on from. Even champions have public disagreements on the pitch, all in the name of maintaining high standards.

However, United’s performance standards have been anything but high in the 2024/25 campaign. If we’re being perfectly honest, too, Onana has been a contributing factor in yet another season that has fallen well short of expectations.

Footage shared by @Utd_Forever7 on X (formerly Twitter) shows Casemiro gesticulating at our No.1 shotstopper.

The former Inter Milan goalkeeper had appeared to be giving his teammates a telling off after Luke Shaw put the ball out for a Tottenham corner.

Manchester United need a goalkeeping upgrade

Manchester United are desperate for an overhaul across the pitch this summer.

One area recruiters are almost certain to take a long, hard look at this summer is the goalkeeper’s spot. With that in mind, it’s far from surprising to see names like Diogo Costa linked with replacing Andre Onana in the upcoming window.

If reports are to be believed, the well-regarded FC Porto goalkeeper is on the club’s shortlist.

There have been some links to Bundesliga champions Bayern, but, to our knowledge, the Bavarians aren’t looking to bolster their goalkeeping department this summer.

Manchester City, of course, could prove a potential threat whilst Ederson continues to be linked with an exit from the Etihad in 2025.

Regardless of who is available this summer, we can’t afford to see United go in with a half-baked idea of who their next No.1 should be. We need an elite goalkeeper who can not only command their area but also the respect of their teammates on the pitch.

  1. This huge overhaul must be across the pitch from goalkeeper to CF. We need a lot of players in every area of the pitch and if we have to sell to buy, then let it start now. This season is OVER, let’s put it behind us and get down to business for next season. All the blaming and finger pointing will be forgotten about after this weekend, and the real business of getting players to move in and out starts in earnest.
    We can still attract top players here at United, so come on Vivell and Wilcox, do your job.

  2. Is there a billionaire out there that can entice the Glazers to sell ManU. Say 10 billion pounds, short term pain for long term gain.

  3. DeGea and Henderson were let go by TenHag for his toy boy Onana? Disgraceful.

    Yes we had a terrible season but have a team that needs overhaul… everywhere… We need to sell of players and invest wisely but look into our academy as there is a lot of talent there..

    1. Spend wisely in the OT recruitment dept is a joke the last 13 yrs Bruno the likely exception we allowed to don a United first team jersey.
