Barcelona have officially turned to Ajax and offered it a trade deal over 24-year-old Cameroonian goalkeeper Andre Onana, the Dutch television reported on Tuesday. The country’s top media announces that the team Frankie de Jong came to in the summer received a list of four players Barca is ready to transfer and this list includes the net goalkeeper, alongside three very promising players of the club in the form of Ricky Putch, Carls Alanya and Alex Cuyado .
Despite the very interesting names, Ajax Wax Barcelona professional manager Mark Overmares was not convinced that this deal should be made and for him he is determined to keep Onana for another season. One of the reasons is the idea that in a year’s time, the vault goalkeeper will be able to receive a very high monetary sum, which is now not happening and becomes a player replacement deal due to the problematic financial situation due to the Corona epidemic. At the same time, it is unclear how Barca’s management can make this move and get out of it, probably when a player like Ricky Putz, marked as the club’s next thing, finds himself elsewhere.
Unana’s interest is not surprising as he is one of the most promising goalkeepers in the world, however, given that Mark Andre Ter Stegen has not yet signed a new contract in Barca’s ranks, it could very well be an attempt to prepare for the day after the German goalkeeper. Onana For Those Who Forget, played in Barcelona from 2010 to 2015 after starring at Samuel Eto’e Academy. He left the Catalans at the age of 19 to join the Ajax young team and in the season progressed to the senior roster.
