Onana was loaned to the Turkish club last season and has become a key figure since settling into the team.<\/p>\n<p>His experience, personality and shot-stopping ability made him popular among supporters, which explains why Trabzonspor pushed for his return.<\/p>\n<p>United&#8217;s main priority appears to be to take the majority of their wages off their books while keeping their options open.<\/p>\n<p>While the club is not completely closing the door as there is no buy-out clause, the move strongly suggests Onana is not in their immediate plans.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manchester_United_would_have_wanted_him_to_leave_permanently\"><\/span>Manchester United would have wanted him to leave permanently.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s a smart deal for Man United, but it also highlights how poorly the original move went.<\/p>\n<p>Onana was signed as a long-term No. 1 but is now heading into his second loan spell with the club.<\/p>\n<p>United could face the same problem next summer, so it&#8217;s a bit frustrating that they don&#8217;t have a buy option.<\/p>\n<p>But even if Trabzonspor pays most of his salary and pays him a small performance-based fee, it&#8217;s still better than keeping an unhappy or undesirable goalkeeper on the team.<\/p>\n<p>For Onana, playing soccer regularly in T\u00fcrkiye is the right choice.
