Andre Onana’s status as United’s No.1 has been under scrutiny since his debut campaign, and the club appears ready to make a change.
Among the names linked, Emiliano Martinez stands out. The World Cup winner is reportedly open to a move to Old Trafford, preferring it over a switch to Barcelona, while Aston Villa may be forced to sell due to financial constraints.
A potential transfer of Onana to AS Monaco could accelerate United’s plans.
The French club is said to be eyeing the Cameroonian in a surprise move, and his departure would all but confirm United’s intent to bring in a new keeper.
However, Villa may be reluctant to offload Martinez to a domestic rival, which could push United to explore other options. One such alternative is Real Madrid’s Andriy Lunin.
The Red Devils have reportedly had a £13 million offer turned down, with Madrid holding out for closer to £21 million.
Lunin, who filled in admirably for Thibaut Courtois last season, has impressed with his distribution and composure on the ball—traits praised by analyst Ben Mattinson, who also noted his strong shot-stopping ability.
While doubts remain over Lunin’s readiness to be a long-term No.1, United’s need for a reliable presence between the posts may see them return with an improved offer.
