Mason Mount adds another creative spark in midfield, but it seems the club&#8217;s business is not done, with more incomings and outgoing seeming likely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More:<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/08\/12\/scott-mctominay-stay-manchester-united-west-ham\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u2018Set to Stay\u2019: \u2018Ideal\u2019 78K P\/W Manchester United Midfielder Now Expected to Remain at Old Trafford<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">United appear to have moved on from Amrabat and are now looking closer to home for a player with Premier League experience. Mount and Bruno Fernandes have the advanced positions covered, so it is a defensive-minded midfield player the club looks to desire.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Is Onana ready to play at a higher level?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Everton&#8217;s Onana was one of the few players who impressed as the Toffees narrowly avoided relegation last season.

The former Lille player averaged 2.2 tackles per game in last season&#8217;s Premier League, the third-highest for Sean Dyche&#8217;s side.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More:<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/08\/12\/eric-bailly-united-defender-transfer-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u2018Reached an Agreement\u2019: \u2018Extraordinary\u2018 Manchester United Player Now Looks Set to Leave Old Trafford<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Casemiro has missed games through suspension, so he cannot be relied upon for the entire season. Moving to a bigger side with better players will help Onana to bring his game to the next level, with a place in Belgium&#8217;s midfield up for grabs. He made 33 appearances in the previous campaign, scoring one goal and providing two assists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Those who have followed his progress in his first season have seen that he is more than ready to play at a higher level. If Amrabat does indeed move to Serie A, there are very few players available that have more potential and talent than Onana.\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sachatavolieri\/status\/1669021278211121152?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Chelsea were interested<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0earlier in the transfer window but have seemingly moved on to other targets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Featured Image: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/vegaseddie\/5293656547\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paul<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CC BY 2.0<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The most recent update on a move for\u00a0Sofyan Amrabat\u00a0seems to indicate that Juventus are the frontrunners, leaving the Red Devils to look for alternatives, and one of these options includes Everton&#8217;s Amadou Onana, according to\u00a0Simon Jones of the Daily Mail.
