Onana joined the Red Devils from Inter Milan for £47million to replace David de Gea.

However, he has since come in for criticism after a number of high-profile mistakes, including against Galatasaray last week.

His United woes have even seen him consider pulling out of the Africa Cup of Nations to avoid the risk of losing his place in the team.

He could soon face another threat, though, with United eyeing AC Milan star Maignan.

Foot Mercato report that United are interested in the Frenchman, along with Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich.

Maignan, who would cost £60million, wants to stay at Milan but has yet to agree a new deal beyond the summer of 2026.

The 28-year-old joined the Italian giants from Lille in 2021, winning Serie A in his first season.

He previously came through PSG’s academy and has won 13 caps for France.

So far this season, Maignan has kept six clean sheets in 16 appearances for Milan.

Chelsea have been linked with him in the past, including in the summer.

Maignan had been targeted as a replacement for Edouard Mendy before the Blues swooped to sign Robert Sanchez.
