Onana to get pay rise upon joining Trabzonspor thanks to clauses in loan deal

ANDRE ONANA is set to earn MORE during his loan to Trabzonspor than he would have made if he remained at Manchester United.

The Cameroonian stopper fell out of favour after patchy form last season, followed by a howler of a performance in the Red Devils' Carabao Cup exit to Grimsby .

News emerged over the weekend that the club had reached an agreement for Onana to move to Turkish giants Trabzonspor on loan.

A move hinges on Onana's green light, with the keeper having until the close of the Turkish transfer window on Thursday to decide.

But now transfer journalist Ben Jacobs claims the 29-year-old would incredibly be receiving a pay rise during his spell abroad due to their added financial incentives.

He said: "Onana will earn more than at Utd due to the sign-on and bonuses offered by Trabzonspor."

His base wage is believed to be around £120,000-per-week, however that figure is reported to have shrunk by around 25 per cent due to a European qualification clause in his contract.

United fans displayed a mix of emotions at the news , with many rejoicing at Onana's move away, and some further mocking the keeper.

One X user said: "For this alone, Amorim, I’m willing to give you till January."

Another user joked about the bonus-based nature of the pay rise, saying: "Won’t be any win bonuses with him in goal!"

There was also an undercurrent of fans surprised by the Turkish side's financial prosperity in being able to hand Onana such large sums of money .

" The games gone," a third user said. "We just cant match the finances of superpowers like Trabzonspor. Oh well."

A fourth added: "From demanding a raise at United to securing the bag in Turkey . Man really fumbled upwards."

The move has been a long time coming after Onana was omitted from the squad for United's season opener against Arsenal , following a similar trajectory to Ruben Amorim 's 'bomb squad' this season.

United have already brought in what many expect to be Onana's replacement in the form of Belgian keeper Senne Lammens from Royal Antwerp.

Lammens arrived for a fee of around £18million and signed a five-year deal in the north-west.
