Manchester United has discovered a competitor for André Onana

Manchester United is poised to make an entrance into the January transfer market with the intent of procuring a new custodian, as reported by Fichajes. The crosshairs of the "Red Devils" have settled on Porto's goalkeeper, Diogo Costa. Notably, Manchester United appears undeterred by the fact that securing the services of the 24-year-old Portuguese goalkeeper will demand no less than a substantial 50 million euros.

The interest in Diogo Costa is underpinned by two manifest issues concerning André Onana. Firstly, the Cameroonian custodian, during his initial months at Manchester United, has managed to disappoint by virtue of committing a plethora of glaring errors. These inadequacies are potentially associated with his absence of competition. Secondly, André Onana is slated to depart for the African Cup of Nations in January for a duration of one month.

The prospect of commencing the 2023/2024 season with a pair of proficient goalkeepers has eluded Manchester United, following the non-renewal of David de Gea's contract. The Spanish goalkeeper graced the ranks of the "Red Devils" for 12 seasons.

It was previously disclosed that Erik ten Hag boasts a rather commendable track record as the manager of Manchester United, particularly in the post-Alex Ferguson era.
