Man Utd make second offer for Inter goalkeeper Andre Onana

Manchester United have made an improved offer to sign Andre Onana from Inter, 90min understands.

The Italian side have already rejected one approach from United worth a total of €45m, but United have kept negotiations live and followed up with a new bid worth €50m - broken down into €45m plus €5m in add-ons.

As it stands, it's unlikely Inter will accept the second proposal and while they have ambitions for United to meet their asking price at €60m, sources indicate that the two clubs may end up meeting between the two valuations in order to close a deal.

Onana has been established by Erik ten Hag as his top goalkeeping target after United withdrew a contract offer to last season's first choice, David de Gea, and the Spaniard is now out of contract. It's expected United will speak to De Gea about his long-term plan but Ten Hag has decided it's important to upgrade in the position this summer if they can attract the right player for the right price.

Interest from Saudi Arabia has already been rebuffed by Onana, with the Cameroon international instead keen to reunite with Ten Hag, who was his manager for five years at Ajax.

Inter's precarious financial situation means they must sell players before reinvesting in their squad, and they recently sold high-earner Marcelo Brozovic to Al Nassr. Sassuolo's Davide Frattesi is expected to come in to replace him, but Inter also have ambitions to bring Romelu Lukaku back to San Siro after a loan spell last year.

United completed the signing of Mason Mount from Chelsea on Wednesday, in a deal worth up to £60m if all add-ons are met, and are keen to add a centre forward to their squad. Atalanta striker Rasmus Hojlund is emerging as one of their key striking targets, with higher value targets such as Harry Kane and Victor Osimhen looking difficult to attain.
