Manchester United keeper Onana rested for Premier League trip to Newcastle

Off-field problems add to Amorim’s desire to protect him

RESTED: André Onana will miss Manchester United’s game at Newcastle on Sunday but is likely to be back against Lyon in Europe.

André Onana has been rested by Ruben Amorim for Manchester United’s trip to Newcastle on Sunday, after the No 1 was culpable for both goals in Thursday’s 2-2 Europa League draw at Lyon.

While Altay Bayindir is set to make his Premier League debut at St James’ Park, the 29-year-old is likely to be recalled for Thursday’s quarter-final, second leg at Old Trafford, the Guardian understands. Onana was left behind when United travelled to Tyneside on Saturday.
