The Cameroonian goalkeeper arrived at Old Trafford during the summer of 2023, completing a high-profile transfer from Serie A powerhouse Inter. Tasked with stepping into the shoes of Premier League Golden Glove recipient David de Gea, Onana encountered early setbacks marked by costly errors in his performances.
Despite this, he shared with ESPN his gratitude for the overwhelming support he received from Manchester United fans worldwide. Rather than just focusing on results, these fans encouraged him with messages like, “Andre, don’t worry, we are with you. Keep going.”
This unwavering trust and kindness were a new experience for him, contrasting with the usual criticism players face when they don’t meet expectations from the start.
Recently, Onana has experienced a resurgence in form, showcasing his undeniable talent on the field. Reflecting on this, he emphasized the importance of patience and perseverance in overcoming challenges.
He believes that in life, one either wins or learns, and setbacks are opportunities for growth. He stressed the value of resilience, highlighting that giving up is not an option for someone who has worked hard to reach the level he’s at.
With 43 appearances for United across various competitions this season, Onana looks forward to contributing significantly in their upcoming match against Championship side Coventry in the FA Cup semi-finals at Wembley, aiming to continue their journey to success.
