But the keeper has endured a nightmare start to life at the Theatre of Dreams, making several gaffes.
His poor form continued in the Red Devils’ Premier League clash with Brentford on Saturday.

And scores of United fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to voice their frustrations with the 27-year-old’s latest error.
One wrote: “Remember when they said Onana was De Gea’s upgrade.”
Another said: “Onana is terrible.”
And another said: “I used to think United’s defence was exposing Onana – but it seems he’s just bad.”
One remarked: “Watching Onana play is gonna give me a heart attack.”
