Onana: I know things will come good at Man Utd; I experienced the same with Inter Milan

Andre Onana has explained leaving Inter Milan for Manchester United last summer.

The Cameroon goalkeeper spoke with Sky Italia after defeat at Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

“It's too big as a dream. I come from a humble family, we had nearly nothing. I started playing with my friends in Cameroon and I didn't expect I would have this career," he said.

“The truth is that it's something big. I've been working all my life to be here, and I am extremely proud to represent Manchester United and wear this shirt that weighs a lot."

On his form this season, he continued: “Errors are part of the training. People have big expectations from me; this is why I've been criticised a lot.

“To me, it's not a problem because I am accustomed to it. It happened at Inter too. I was criticised at the beginning and it ended with eternal love with Inter.

Manchester United are a bigger club and people have big expectations, but I am sure that by doing things well, we will soon smile as it happened at Inter. Not many believed in us [last season], but then we proved what we could do, and I am really happy with what we achieved last season.

“Now, my future is at Manchester United, we have to stand up and do well. These moments happen and we have to face them. Good and bad moments don't last forever."
