According to The Athletic, the goalkeeper has sustained damage to his pubis, which is one of the bones that comprise the pelvis in accordance with the Cameroonian Federation. Additionally, they verified that the United player will rejoin his team and will not play in their upcoming qualifier on Tuesday against Libya.

The injury news of their first-choice goalkeeper comes as a huge blow for the Red Devils and Erik ten Hag as the Dutch manager has a long injury list. Rasmus Hojlund and Christian Eriksen both had to withdraw from international duty after sustaining injuries while defenders Jonny Evans, Lisandro Martinez and Tyrell Malacia continue to remain out of action. Casemiro too will not play another game until January.

Marcus Rashford had to be stretchered off during England’s Euro 2024 qualification match against Malta on the day Onana sustained his pelvic injury. This further adds to Ten Hag’s headache.

It’s unclear if the former Inter player will be ready for Sunday’s Premier League match between United and Everton. In the event that the 27-year-old is unable to return to full fitness, Altay Bayındır may make his team debut.
