Goalkeeper Andre Onana (30, Trabzonspor), who plays on the Turkish stage as part of Manchester United, was involved in a major traffic accident with his family but safely weathered the crisis.

The UK's "The Sun" reported on the 23rd (Korean time) that "Onana was caught up in a terrible traffic accident involving multiple vehicles but narrowly escaped with his life."

The accident occurred on the night of the 22nd. Onana had led his team to a 2-0 victory in a home UEFA Conference League match against Hearts, finishing scoreless. Afterward, he was driving home with his family when the accident happened.

On the Yomra road near Trabzon, a following vehicle rear-ended Onana's car at high speed. The impact pushed Onana's car forward, causing it to collide with the vehicle in front of him. At the time, Onana was driving a "Hongqi E-HS9," a luxury car valued at 100,000 pounds (approximately 178 million won), known as the "Chinese Rolls-Royce." Scene photos showed severe damage to the front of the vehicle and debris scattered across the road.

Immediately after the accident, emergency rescue teams rushed to the scene and transported Onana and his family members to the hospital. Fortunately, no major injuries were found relative to the scale of the accident, and they were discharged immediately after detailed examinations.

Ertugrul Dogan, chairman of Trabzonspor, told local media, "There is nothing wrong with Onana's health. We wish him a speedy recovery."

Onana has been playing as a key figure for the team, recording scoreless results in four of his last five league matches. The outlet noted that "Galatasaray, the defending champion of the Turkish league, is also closely watching his performance."

A veteran goalkeeper who has represented Cameroon in 53 international matches, Onana left Inter Milan for Manchester United in 2023 for a transfer fee of 43.8 million pounds (approximately 78 billion won). He played in 102 matches for Manchester United and led the team to victory in the 2024 FA Cup. In 2025, he moved on loan to Trabzonspor, where he won the Turkish cup competition, and agreed in July last month to extend his loan by one year. His original contract with Manchester United runs until 2028.
