United in talks to sign 29-yo star to replace frustrating Ten Hag signing, transfer seen as “matter of time” – report
Manchester United are determined to replace Andre Onana with AC Milan star Mike Maignan, as per reports.
Onana continues to leave fans and pundits alike disappointed with his unreliable shot-stopping.
United’s outfield players were caught cold on the break by Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night, as they should have never allowed Anthony Elanga to run through their midfield and take a shot from inside the box.
Still, Onana could have done better to deny the Swede. The United number 1’s positioning was atrocious, allowing the Forest winger to slot the ball into the bottom right corner with a relatively timid shot.
The 29-year-old’s mistake didn’t surprise many, as such weak shot-stopping has become a habit for the error-prone goalkeeper.
Manchester United trying to sign Mike Maignan
According to Fichajes, United are “already working” on strengthening their goalkeeping department and have set their sights on Maignan.
The France international has been a commanding presence between the sticks for Milan for many seasons now. Apart from his excellent shot-stopping skills, Maignan has also impressed with his composure in possession.
It is understood that United consider the Frenchman as their preferred option to replace the underwhelming Onana.
Further, the Spanish outlet claim that the negotiations between the player and United have made significant progress, suggesting that “his arrival in the Premier League could be a matter of time.”
Maignan, 29, will enter the final 12 months of his contract this summer.
However, considering his importance to their project, the Rossoneri are expected to demand a substantial fee to sanction his exit.
Recently, The Peoples Person relayed a report claiming the Red Devils are also eyeing Royal Antwerp goalkeeper Senne Lammens, but they face competition from noisy neighbours, Manchester City.

United winger breaks silence on his future after finding blistering form with loan club – report
Brazilian winger Antony has spoken on his long term future as he continues to impress in his loan spell with La Liga side, Real Betis.
The 25-year-old was allowed to leave Old Trafford in the winter transfer window and has found some form on the continent, notching four goals in all competitions and providing some eye catching displays.
With the season nearing its conclusion, speculation has begun regarding the forward’s long term plans but Antony insists it’s still “too early” to decide his future.
As reported by The Mirror, Antony told Mundo Deportivo he is loving life in Spain but isn’t ready to cement his plans beyond the end of the current campaign.
“I’m very happy here (Betis), but it’s still too early to decide. I enjoy every day in the Betis shirt.
“I identify a lot with the fans because of the feeling; we Brazilians are like that too,” he said.
The Betis fans have certainly taken to the winger who has lit up the Estadio Benito Villamarín at times and the home faithful will be desperate for the club to make the deal permanent in the summer.
However, financial restraints could complicate a potential transfer with teammate Isco insisting the club need a crowd funding to ensure he stays for another year at least.
It’s clear the former Ajax man is suited to the pace in Europe, rather than the helter-skelter nature of the Premier League, in which he has struggled to make an impact.
The mega money transfer to United came with the expectations of goals and assists but after almost two years of poor form in Manchester, INEOS will almost certainly be cutting their losses in the upcoming market.
Atletico Madrid have also emerged as surprise potential suitors, underlining the impact Antony has made in Spain and leaving United in with a chance of sparking a bidding war to secure his services.
Meanwhile, United continue to struggle in attacking areas, with Tuesday’s loss to Nottingham Forest another stark example of the lack of quality in Amorim’s squad.
A busy summer is certainly on the cards at the Theatre of Dreams and it’s expected Antony will be used to bolster the transfer kitty with Amorim desperate to build a side that is better suited to his playing style.
