Former Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar previously waxed lyrical about Inter Milan shot-stopper Andre Onana. Though uncertainty continues to surround David de Gea's future at Old Trafford, United have identified Onana as a possible replacement for the Spaniard.
De Gea, who got married over the weekend, is now officially a free agent after his contract at United concluded on Friday, but the Reds are still set to hold talks with him to see if a resolution can be reached.
But in the event of both parties agreeing to go their separate ways, United will have to recruit a new first-choice goalkeeper for the first time in more than a decade.
Onana has been pinpointed as an ideal candidate by United manager Erik ten Hag, who worked with the Cameroonian at Ajax. Onana, 27, spent six years at the Johan Cruyff Arena and excelled under the Dutchman's stewardship, racking up almost 150 appearances.
