Amadou Onana injury update: Aston Villa midfielder uncertain for Manchester United showdown

Amadou Onana is uncertain for Aston Villa's Premier League match against Manchester United this Sunday.

The 23-year-old was forced off in the second half of Villa’s 1-0 win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday evening.

Onana has quickly established himself as a key part of Villa’s midfield since arriving in a £50 million deal from Everton in the summer.

However, Villa could be without Onana for their match at home against United this weekend, with Belgium head coach, Domenico Tedesco, revealing on Friday that the midfielder is carrying an injury and could be rested during the international break.

Onana has been named in Belgium’s 23-man squad for their upcoming Nations League games against Italy and France.

But Tedesco said at his press conference: ‘Onana has a small problem, but an MRI was positive and otherwise we will replace him.

‘He will try to play but we will monitor him.’

Onana has started in all six of Villa’s Premier League games this season, scoring two goals.

Villa could also be without Jacob Ramsey for the game against United after he was substituted in the first half against Bayern.

The 23-year-old, who also started in Villa’s 2-2 draw with Ipswich Town last weekend, was forced off with a groin injury.
