Manchester United star Andre Onana has reportedly seen his Lamborghini impounded by the police. The goalkeeper’s friend was driving the car when it was stopped for not being insured and taken away.
As per a report in The Sun, Onana’s £350,000 Lamborghini Urus was flagged on an Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) in Hale Barns. His friend had taken the car for a drive when the police spotted it and stopped him.
The Manchester United goalkeeper has 14 days to get the insurance for his vehicle and retrieve it. If he fails to get the paperwork done in time, the car could be auctioned off or crushed, as per the report.
The incident took place before the second leg of their Europa League semifinal against Athletic Bilbao, where Onana started in the 4-1 win at Old Trafford. The Red Devils managed to secure a stunning win thanks to a brace from Mason Mount and a goal each from Casemiro and Rasmus Hojlund.
Onana is not the first Manchester United star to have car troubles with the police in recent years. Paul Pogba had his Rolls-Royce Wraith seized after he drove it around with a Monaco-registered number plate, but he had to pay a fine of £220 and also landed 3 misdemeanour points.
Andre Onana has had a topsy-turvy time at Manchester United since joining from Inter Milan in 2023. Football pundit Paul Parker urged the Red Devils to replace the goalkeeper with Mads Hermansen and said (via Metro):
Saudi Pro League sides are reportedly keeping tabs on Andre Onana as the goalkeeper could be made available for sale in the summer.
