When negotiating his switch to the Turkish outfit last September, United did not include any sort of buy option in the terms, meaning fresh talks would need to be held to determine how a potential transfer would look.
The 30-year-old is tied to Old Trafford until 2028, so it remains to be seen what kind of fee United would demand for a player they shelled out £47.9 million for.
Onana’s record for United in all competitions

Despite Onana having his sights set on reviving his Red Devils career, it’s common knowledge now that INEOS are adamant about parting ways as soon as the window opens.
He had two full seasons to prove himself as a worthy No.1, but instead accumulated a catalogue of goalkeeping howlers and costly errors.
In fact, by the beginning of 2025/2026, Onana dropped behind Altay Bayindir in Ruben Amorim’s pecking order.
When he, too, failed to impress, it prompted INEOS to frantically enter the market in the final days to secure a new ‘keeper, eventually doing so in the form of Senne Lammens.
Lammens has impressed massively since cementing his spot between the sticks, and it’s expected he will retain the place for years to come.
Onana and Bayindir, on the other hand, will be sold before 2026/2027 gets underway.
