Two games in two days?! Andre Onana's Africa Cup of Nations travel plans revealed as Man Utd reach agreement with Cameroon on departure date

World Cup Qualification CAF

United and Cameroon have agreed that <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/player/andre-onana/8kttsnok9bbh7kpy3zz3j2xg5" target="_blank">Onana</a> will travel to Ivory Coast to join his international team-mates <a href="https://theathletic.com/5168031/2024/01/03/andre-onana-man-utd-cameroon-afcon/" target="_blank">straight after United face Tottenham on January 14</a>. The goalkeeper will then be available to play in Cameroon's tournament opener against Guinea on January 15.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The agreement between United and the Cameroonian Football Federation (FECAFOOT) means Onana will also be available for United's FA Cup third-round clash with Wigan on January 8. Having endured a mixed start to the season, Onana was keen to minimise the number of United games he would miss by playing at the AFCON. Should Cameroon fail to progress from the group stage, then he might not miss any club matches at all.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

United signed Onana from Inter in the summer on the understanding that he would not be playing at the 2023 AFCON. The 27-year-old retired from international football in 2022 after falling out with FECAFOOT president Samuel Eto'o, but he was persuaded to return and was included in Cameroon's squad for the tournament. According to <a href="https://theathletic.com/5168031/2024/01/03/andre-onana-man-utd-cameroon-afcon/" target="_blank">The Athletic</a>, there was a willingness from both United and FECAFOOT to reach a compromise.

DID YOU KNOW?

Onana will need to use all of his mental and physical strength to play - and perform well - in two matches in two days. Should Cameroon reach the final of the competition on February 11, then Onana will miss United's Premier League meetings with Wolves, West Ham and Aston Villa, plus a potential FA Cup fourth-round clash should they get past Wigan.

WHAT NEXT FOR ONANA?
