It is revealed that Onana will stay at Manchester United! Help lobby Mbemo to join and maintain a good relationship with Amorin

Although Tottenham intervened in the battle for Mbemo, Manchester United is still confident in signing the Brentford striker. Red Devils' Cameroon goalkeeper Andre Onana also helped coach Ruben Amorin as a lobbyist. Although this is unlikely to affect Mbemo's decision, it can maintain Onana's relationship with the coach.

Mbemo said that he told his friends that he only wanted to join Manchester United, but that did not prevent Tottenham from taking action. They hired the player's mentor Thomas Frank, who led Mbemo for six years to help him grow from a Ligue 2 young player to the fourth Premier League scorer.

Manchester United has reached an oral agreement with Mbemo, and the problem is now how to offer a transfer fee quote that satisfies Brentford. Meanwhile, Manchester Evening News said that Onana also took action to help the club introduce the 25-year-old national teammate. Although Mbemo was born in France and grew up and played football there, he chose to play for his father's home country Cameroon.

It is worth mentioning that Mbemo has indeed been persuaded by his compatriots in his career. He had the opportunity to represent France, but he chose Cameroon under the lobbying of the legendary Etoo. The Daily Mirror reported that in the summer of 2022, Etoo, then chairman of the Cameroon Football Association, personally invited Mbemo. "There were only two of us in that meeting, at a restaurant," Mbemo later confirmed, "He came to London to meet me, and I realized it was a valuable opportunity. At first I couldn't decide whether to accept it, but he explained Cameroon's plan. I was deeply moved and finally chose to play for my father's motherland." Neither Onana and Mbemo participated in the friendly match between Cameroon and Uganda and Equatorial Guinea this month. The last time they played for the country was the 2026 US-Canada-Mexico World Cup Africa Qualifiers with Libya in March. Fans still remember that Onana rushed to the frontcourt when Mbemo took a free kick and provided advice to the "secondary".

It is one thing whether the other party listens or not, but Onana, who likes to show off, will not miss the opportunity to be the protagonist. Therefore, it is not surprising that Mbemo gave advice when he could transfer to Manchester United. Although Onana has performed poorly for the first two seasons at Manchester United, he is expected to remain in the team - probably mainly because he can't find his next home.

Manchester United spent 50 million euros to introduce Onana, and he enjoyed a salary of more than 120,000 pounds, which is difficult for European teams to match. But Manchester United coach Amorin maintains a good cooperative relationship with the 29-year-old goalkeeper, which is also a fact that there is no controversy. The two have warmly embraced and celebrated in the UEFA Cup.

Manchester United will indeed arrange teammates from the club or national team to help convince the target players to join the team. When Tenhager was coaching, a total of 6 Ajax players gathered at Manchester United. In addition, when Hoylund and Patrick Dorgu joined, Danish senior Eriksen also played his role.

Even if Onana stays in the team, Manchester United may still introduce a new goalkeeper, which is tied to the stay and departure of Turkish goalkeeper Altay Baindir. In order to participate in next year's World Cup, Baindir may apply for a transfer and join a club where he can play the main players. The Turkish Super League team is very interested in him, including former Manchester United coach Solskjaer Besiktas.

If Baindir leaves, Amorin needs a No. 2 goalkeeper, and "All Atlanta" reports that Atlanta's Marco Canesecki is one of the candidates. But this is a goalkeeper who is enough to challenge Onana's status and will not be a simple substitute. Atlanta is asking for £38 million.
