Man United’s move to replace Andre Onana in the summer transfer window has fauksd according to reports.
Aston Villa have reportedly turned down an approach from Man United for a loan move involving Argentine goalkeeper Emi “Dibu” Martínez in a bid to replace Andre Onana in the summer 2025 transfer window.
According to sources familiar with the situation, United explored the possibility of bringing in the World Cup-winning shot-stopper on a temporary deal, but Villa have made it clear that Martínez is not available for loan.
With André Onana expected to be absent for parts of the season due to international commitments, United are actively assessing their goalkeeping options ahead of the new campaign.
The club is said to be weighing the benefits of signing either an experienced backup or a younger, long-term prospect.
Among the names under consideration, Lammens, in particular, is seen as a strong candidate due to his age, potential, and familiarity with European competition.
While the pursuit of Martínez now appears to be off the table, United’s goalkeeping search continues with urgency. The club is expected to reach an internal decision soon on the profile of goalkeeper they want to bring in, whether to prioritize immediate experience or invest in youth.
The transfer window remains open, and Manchester United’s next move in the market will be closely watched by fans and analysts alike.
