On-loan Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana has continued to thrive at Trabzonspor, following up last week's Man-of-the-Match display with a fine assist in Saturday evening's 1-1 draw against Gaziantep.

The Cameroonian has quickly become a key figure and fan favourite at the Turkish club, with his assured performances justifying the financial commitment made for his season-long loan.

He delivered a sweeping long ball from his own half, which was expertly finished by Nigerian striker Paul Onuachu to score the opener.

Onuachu, who has now scored three goals in six games, is a vital part of the team's fight to finish in the European places, and his connection with Onana's long balls could be a valuable asset for Trabzonspor's ambitions this season.

The 31-year-old scored 17 goals during a loan spell with Trabzonspor back in the 2023-24 season, but a return to Southampton proved to be hugely underwhelming as he managed just 4 goals in 28 appearances.

He is back in Turkey, and his performances and goals will be crucial for Trabzonspor.
