Man United GK Andre Onana out vs Arsenal today

Manchester United will reportedly be without goalkeeper Andre Onana for today’s Premier League game against Arsenal.

The Red Devils host the Gunners at Old Trafford for their opening fixture of the 2025/26 campaign, but they’ll have to do it without their first-choice ‘keeper.

See below as David Ornstein has posted about Onana’s fitness on X, saying that the Cameroon international has been in training but is not yet ready to play for the club as he continues to work on getting back to full fitness…

Will Man United miss Andre Onana against Arsenal?

Onana has had his critics during his time at United, so there’ll be a lot of fans who aren’t that bothered if he misses today’s game.

Indeed, there may even be one or two Arsenal fans cursing their luck as Onana is notably error-prone, so might have been able to gift the Gunners a goal in this game.

Altay Bayindir is United’s backup ‘keeper, and it will be interesting to see how he performs if he starts as expected today.
