Onana was carried off the field while playing for his national side Cameroon in a World Cup qualifier against Mauritius.

Rigobert Song’s men were exceedingly dominant, with goals from Bryan Mbeumo, Georges Nkoudou, and Frank Magri sealing the victory.

The game’s worst flaw was Onana’s substitution at the 81st minute.

Fabrice Ondoa took over as United’s shot-stopper for the remainder of the game.

Onana had an adductor injury, according to Actu Cameroun. The postponement has evidently caused alarm among Cameroonian fans, with only two months until the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) begins.

According to the report, “André Onana will have to undergo medical examinations to determine the exact nature of his injury and the duration of his unavailability.”

Recovery time for an adductor injury is determined on the severity of the problem, which means that it may be impossible to put an exact time stamp on Onana’s return to action until further and more extensive examinations are performed on the player.

It is believed that Grade 1 recovery can take up to two weeks, with normal movement such as walking regained in a matter of days.

Grade 2 strains, on the other hand, can take up to six weeks to heal.

United’s worst nightmare would be if Onana sustained a Grade 4 strain, which would virtually surely keep him out for four months.

Onana is expected to become the newest member to Manchester United’s lengthy injury list, which already includes Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martinez, Casemiro, Jonny Evans, and Amad Diallo.
