Andre Onana is hoping to return to action before the end of Manchester United's pre-season tour after suffering a hamstring injury blow in training.

WHAT HAPPENED?

In a boost for both Onana and United, the 29-year-old's injury may not be as serious as initially feared, report The Mirror, who state the injury is a hamstring strain rather than a tear. Onana is set to travel out to meet the squad for their Premier League Summer Series fixtures in the USA and reportedly may be in contention for a return to action in his side's third fixture of the tour, taking place in Atlanta against Everton on August 3.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

United have been linked with Aston Villa goalkeeper Martinez for a number of weeks amid rumours that the Argentine World Cup winner is open to a new challenge. Onana is believed to want to stay at Old Trafford, but an extended injury lay-off could have given the Cameroon international a more difficult task to regain the No. 1 shirt if a new goalkeeper was brought in.

DID YOU KNOW?

United's links with Martinez remain strong but, as it stands, deputy Altay Bayindir is expected to feature in Onana's absence during pre-season. Third-choice Tom Heaton recently signed a new one-year contract with the club, meaning one of Onana or Bayindir may be required to depart if a new goalkeeper is brought in.

WHAT NEXT FOR ONANA?

The former Ajax and Inter Milan goalkeeper may face a battle on his hands to remain first-choice at Old Trafford for much longer, regardless of his injury. This may be a make-or-break season for the much-criticised shot-stopper if Ruben Amorim does decide to give him another chance when United return to Premier League action, beginning with Arsenal's visit on August 17.
