Andre Onana is getting ready to make his professional debut for the team against Wolves, and former Manchester United goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel has advised him not to try to change his style of play in any way.
The 27-year-old Cameroonian completed a high-profile transfer from Inter Milan last month and became United’s second acquisition of the summer. He will fill the gap left by the departure of David de Gea.
The Reds’ style of play will be revolutionized by Onana, who collaborated with United boss Erik ten Hag at Ajax. This is especially true when it comes to constructing and playing out from the back. One of the finest distributors in the game, he never hesitates to seize the initiative and control the game from his own spot.
Schmeichel, a former United goalkeeper who won five Premier League championships during his tenure at Old Trafford, disagrees that Onana must demonstrate his ability to play the ball at Old Trafford. Instead, he wants him to concentrate on developing a grasp of what it means to play for a club like United and to be a member of a team.
