Erik ten Hag has shown his ruthless edge once again with the release of David De Gea, and the Manchester United boss will feel vindicated if he can get a deal over the line for Andre Onana.
De Gea became a free agent upon the expiry of his contract last weekend after failing to agree fresh terms. On Saturday, the goalkeeper confirmed he would call time on a 12-year career at Old Trafford with Ten Hag already in the process of finding a replacement.
The Dutchman is keen to bring in a No.1 who can better fit his tactical demands, that being someone who can play out from the back as comfortably as his central defenders. He has seemingly set his sights on Onana, currently at Inter Milan but previously of Ten Hag's Ajax.
