After ex-Inter goalkeeper Andre Onana flopped, Manchester United are reportedly looking to Milan’s Mike Maignan as their new shot-stopper.

Onana was an extraordinary piece of business by Inter, who snapped up the Cameroon international as a free agent in the summer of 2022 and sold him on again a year later to Old Trafford for €50m plus bonuses.

However, he has struggled badly at Manchester United and been dropped entirely from the squad by coach Ruben Amorim for their most recent match.

Multiple sources suggest they are desperate to sell him this summer and now Caught Offside claim in an exclusive that the Premier League side are again looking to San Siro.

This time, their target is Milan goalkeeper Maignan, whose contract negotiations have dragged on considerably.

The France international turns 30 in July and his current contract only runs to June 2026, so a sale this summer is likely if a deal isn’t reached soon.

He was purchased from LOSC for €16.4m in 2021 and his form has been somewhat shakier this season, along with a surprisingly poor injury record.

Any sale would be worth around €40m, with Chelsea and Aston Villa also interested.
