Onana was loaned to Turkish Super League club Trabzonspor this summer, but club president Etgül Dogan said it would be difficult to retain Onana long-term.
President Dogan said: "What is the real situation about Onana? We are talking about a goalkeeper who was transferred for 70 million euros a year ago, and his salary is very high. It is impossible for Trabzonspor to afford such a cost."
President Dogan continued: "Why is it impossible? Let me explain. Our competitors can Earning 100 million to 150 million euros from their stadium, they can sell 700,000 to 1 million jerseys, the boxes are full, and the season tickets have been sold out a few months ago. And look at ourselves: no one buys jerseys, no one rents boxes, no one buys season tickets. We have to work according to the actual situation, the current flow can only make the mill turn so fast."
