Harambee Stars Goalkeeper’s Predicament In South Africa To Give Benni McCarthy Selection Headache
The goalkeeper has turned into a bench warmer at his club which could see Harambee Stars coach Benni McCarthy look elsewhere for future assignments.
In February 2021 while playing for Ajax, Onana was handed a 12-month ban for testing positive for banned substance Furosemide, although he claimed he had taken his wife’s medicine by mistake.
He appealed the ban and it was reduced to nine months but it spelt the end of his time at Ajax as he left as a free agent in June 2022.
For Cameroon, Andre Onana was sent home from the team’s 2022 World Cup camp after falling out with the then coach Rigobert Song.
Onana was reportedly kicked out for disciplinary reasons after he refused to align with the coach’s tactical instructions and he would react by retiring from international football before later rescinding his decision.
In April 2025, Andre Onana was involved in a war of words with Lyon midfielder Nemanja Matic, who described him as the “worst goalkeeper in United history” while the Cameroon international fired back by saying he had won trophies with the Red Devils, something the Serbian, who played for five years at the Premier League club, could not achieve.
