Manchester Unites do have other alternatives if they fail to get Onana. Even now, Manchester United's offer to get Onana has been rejected by Inter Milan. Because Manchester United made an offer below the price set by Inter Milan. Manchester United made an offer of 40 million euros and a bonus of 5 million euros and was rejected by Inter Milan who wanted 50 million euros plus a bonus of 10 million euros. And I think the Manchester United side did not just give up. They will surely make another offer. Because Erik Ten Heg really seems to see Onana as the most suitable candidate for the pattern of play that has been built by Ten Heg at Man United at the moment. But if the next bid fails, then maybe then Ten Heg will switch to other Alternative options.
Manchester United are just in a hurry to get rid of David DeGea who happens to be one of their top performing player in recent years. Just because ETH wants a goalkeeper that plays in a particular way, they are ready to let him go. The club has handled his contract extension unprofessionally, he has signed his contract extension with a reduced salary before leaving on break. United has not signed theirs because if they had there would have been a formal announcement from the club. They allowed his contract to run out and they now risk losing him for free. It's going to be a big shame if DDG leaves this way.
Manchester United should try to keep David DeGea in the squad. David DeGea is an excellent goalkeeper. And he is quite experienced. Manchester United should not let David DeGea leave for free. And with David DeGea gone, it will be very difficult for Manchester United to find an experienced goalkeeper. However, Manchester United coach Erik Ten Hag may take a decision that is useful for his team.
