Manchester United's André Onana to Captain Cameroon at AFCON 2024
Manchester United goalkeeper André Onana has been named in the squad for AFCON 2024, where he will lead Cameroon's Indomitable Lions during the tournament in Côte D'Ivoire.
The African Cup of Nations is set to commence on January 13, with the final scheduled for February 11.
Despite facing challenges in his performances for Manchester United this season, Onana's selection for the national team raises intrigue, especially considering his previous retirement announcement following a dispute with coach Rigobert Song at the World Cup in Qatar last year.
Earlier this year, Onana reversed his decision to retire, marking a return to the field during a friendly match for Cameroon. This development has led to discussions about his form and impact during AFCON 2024.
During Onana's absence for the tournament, Manchester United will rely on Bayindir as the backup goalkeeper. There's speculation that manager Erik ten Hag may explore potential goalkeeper signings in the upcoming January transfer window to bolster the team's options.
