Manchester United supporters are keeping a close eye on the transfer market as the club navigates a busy early-season schedule.

After a shocking Carabao Cup exit to League Two side Grimsby Town, questions around squad depth and player fitness have only intensified.

Ruben Amorim has been juggling a number of injury concerns, with Lisandro Martinez and Noussair Mazraoui both edging closer to full fitness.

Meanwhile, Manchester United’s goalkeeping situation has been under scrutiny following a string of inconsistent performances in recent fixtures, leaving fans anxious about who will start in the Premier League.

It has now emerged that West Ham United, who are themselves looking to strengthen in goal, were offered the chance to sign Manchester United’s Andre Onana on loan.

However, The Guardian have confirmed that the Hammers opted to pass on the Cameroonian goalkeeper.

The decision comes amid continued speculation about Onana’s future at Old Trafford, where he has been sidelined from the starting XI and faces competition from Altay Bayindir and third-choice Tom Heaton.

Intermediaries had reportedly approached West Ham with the proposal, but the club is understood to be pursuing alternative options to reinforce their goalkeeping ranks, including potential targets from Hull City and Botafogo.

Andre Onana, meanwhile, is said to be determined to remain at Manchester United and fight for his place in the squad, rejecting other potential moves despite his uncertain playing time.

This development adds another layer of intrigue to United’s ongoing goalkeeper dilemma, as the club evaluates its options ahead of a packed schedule of Premier League fixtures.

With the transfer window closing soon, United must decide whether to back Onana or explore other avenues to secure a reliable option between the posts, while West Ham continue their search for a goalkeeper capable of helping them challenge higher up the table.
