Manchester United has successfully reached a £47.2m (55m euros) agreement to acquire the services of Inter Milan goalkeeper André Onana.

The deal includes an upfront payment of £43.8m, with an additional £3.4m in add-ons. The Old Trafford club is eager to have the Cameroon player join them on their upcoming tour of the United States, pending the arrangement of a visa for the 27-year-old.

Manager Erik ten Hag, who previously worked with Onana at Ajax, pursued the goalkeeper at the end of the season. Onana is expected to sign a five-year contract with an option for a sixth, indicating United's confidence in his abilities.

Ten Hag believes that Onana's addition to the squad will be significant, and his pursuit of a new goalkeeper prompted David de Gea to reject a new contract offer. Manchester United is looking forward to welcoming Onana and bolstering their team ahead of the new season.
