Tensions have boiled over at Old Trafford after Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim delivered a stunningly blunt assessment of goalkeeper André Onana, leaving both supporters and media in shock. Speaking directly from the stadium, Amorim openly questioned the Cameroonian’s quality, commitment, and long-term future with the team.
“I can’t keep working with him,” Amorim admitted in visible frustration. “I’ve had enough. He couldn’t stop a single shot in training, yet expects to remain our first-choice keeper all season? That’s unthinkable. I don’t even blame him—I blame Erik ten Hag for wasting the club’s money on his signing.”
The Portuguese boss’s outburst sent shockwaves through the football community, as he not only criticized Onana’s displays but also took aim at the recruitment decisions made before his arrival.
Amorim then revealed he has already contacted a familiar figure—United legend David De Gea. “I’ve spoken with David, and we both want to work together again,” he declared. “This club needs reliability, it needs a goalkeeper the fans can believe in. Onana has until the transfer window shuts to secure a move elsewhere. I’ve had enough.”
The dramatic comments have raised the possibility of a sensational return for De Gea, who left under Ten Hag but remains a fan favorite after more than a decade of service. For Amorim, the Spaniard represents the stability he feels United desperately needs.
Reactions among fans are mixed: some angered by Onana’s public humiliation, others encouraged by the chance to see De Gea back between the posts. What’s certain is that United now finds itself in the middle of a full-blown goalkeeping crisis, with the closing of the transfer window looming larger than ever.
Chaos has officially engulfed Old Trafford.
