This is definitely a good moment for the Red Devils fans as Manchester United top transfer target Andre Onana appears to have hinted that he is close to leaving Inter Milan amidst proposed move to Old Trafford.
Onana has remained Man United’s top target to replace David de Gea at Old Trafford
National Daily earlier reported that United’s latest offer for the former Ajax goalie is thought to be at around £39million with Inter demanding a fee closer to £51m for their shot stopper.
However, reports now reaching National Daily suggest that a compromise is likely be struck with Onana already suggesting that a move could be on the cards soon.
The 27-year-old Cameroonian has on Thursday, shared a picture on Instagram of a man’s feet, one in a sandal and the other in a designer shoe, alongside the caption: ‘Every life has a story, and every story has an end… never fool anyone’.
It is believed that United who confirmed the signing of Mason Mount from Chelsea on Wednesday will have their focus now thought to be on wrapping up a deal for Onana.
An opening offer from Old Trafford was described as ‘not at the level expected’ by Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio but negotiations between the two parties continue.
‘In this moment he’s our goalkeeper and Andre is key player for us — we’d like to keep him, then we’ll see what happens.
‘We wait for him on 13 July for pre-season,’ he said.
Inter vice-president, Javier Zanetti, added on the situation: ‘When you have important players it’s normal that there are requests, but for now Onana is one of our players and we hope to keep all the important ones.
‘The transfer market has just begun, anything can change, but Inter have always shown themselves at the top when building important teams.’
