Man Utd backed to help Arsenal solve dilemma thanks to 'ruthless' Sir Jim Ratcliffe


Onana has kept the joint-most clean sheets in his debut Premier League season – five in 13 appearances – and boasts one of the competition’s better save success rates.

However, his struggles in Europe have heavily contributed to United’s position at rock bottom of Group A in the Champions League.

Onana produced a howler in the opening 4-3 defeat at Bayern Munich, the 3-2 home loss against Galatasaray and two in Wednesday’s return fixture in Istanbul.

United squandered 2-0 and 3-1 leads in the gut-wrenching 3-3 draw, leaving Ten Hag’s side on the brink of an early exit.

Meanwhile, Ramsdale has lost his place as Arsenal’s first-choice goalkeeper. Mikel Arteta replaced the England international with David Raya in the summer but claimed both were competing for the No 1 shirt.

That competition has seemingly proven unhealthy, with both stoppers producing shaky performances in recent months. But United could help Arteta solve the dilemma by offering Ramsdale an out.

Former United player Alan Brazil touted the 25-year-old as a potential option for Ten Hag to call on if Onana continues to stifle his project.

Gabby Agbonlahor played down his claims, but the Scot highlighted Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s arrival as a significant factor in United’s future transfer dealings.

Brazil asked on talkSPORT: “Onana is an accident waiting to happen – what about Ramsdale at Manchester United? I think if Ramsdale wants to go, he’ll get a move. He’s not playing!

“There’s a new owner coming in now, he’s putting in £1.3billion, he might say: ‘Right, I’m now in charge of transfers – he goes. We’re not going to win anything with him.’
