Andre Onana Omitted from Manchester United Squad Amidst Criticism and Recent Struggles

Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana has been left out of the squad for Sunday’s Premier League clash against Newcastle United, following a turbulent week for the Cameroonian shot-stopper.

Manager Ruben Amorim confirmed the decision was made to allow Onana to “rest and disconnect” after his costly errors in the midweek 2-2 draw against Lyon in the Europa League.

The omission comes on the heels of stinging criticism from former United player Nemanja Matic, who labeled Onana “one of the worst goalkeepers” in the club’s history.

Onana, who joined United in 2023 for £47m from Inter Milan, has faced mounting scrutiny after committing eight errors leading to goals since the start of last season — the highest among Premier League goalkeepers.

Amorim, however, offered his support for the under-fire keeper, insisting the decision to rest him was temporary and that Onana remains in contention for Thursday’s crucial Europa League quarter-final second leg against Lyon at Old Trafford.

Turkey international Altay Bayindir is set to deputize in goal for the Red Devils at St. James’ Park, marking his first Premier League appearance of the season and only his sixth outing in all competitions. Bayindir has largely been confined to cup duties since his arrival and will aim to make an impact as United look to maintain their top-four push.

The week has also been challenging for Newcastle United, with manager Eddie Howe ruled out of Sunday’s match after being admitted to hospital due to illness. Despite this, the Magpies will aim to capitalize on the uncertainty surrounding their visitors.

Off-field matters have further complicated Onana’s season, with his wife Melanie Kamayou recently falling victim to a robbery in Cheshire. These personal challenges, combined with his on-pitch struggles, have made it a testing period for the 29-year-old.

Onana’s arrival signaled a new tactical approach for United, with former manager Erik ten Hag favoring his ball-playing abilities over the shot-stopping prowess of the departed David de Gea.

However, a series of high-profile mistakes, including a bizarre misjudgment during Lyon’s first goal on Thursday, has left critics questioning his suitability for the role.
