Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Cameroon goalkeeper Andre Onana has given credit to Manchester United legend Edwin van der Sar for providing him with valuable support during his early struggles at Red Devils.<\/p>\n

Onana arrived at Old Trafford from Ajax last summer and faced criticism following some uncertain performances.<\/p>\n

However, the 28-year-old has since improved and says he is grateful to be able to lean on the advice of the former Man United and Ajax goalkeeper.<\/p>\n

Onana revealed that Van der Sar encouraged him to give himself time to settle and to show his true qualities.<\/p>\n

\u201cI spoke to him [Van der Sar] when I signed here [Man United] and even, I think, a few months ago,\u201d Onana told Inside United.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe told me: \u201cAndre, what can I tell you already? You are already used to the pressure. Just give yourself time and show the world who you are. I already know who you are.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cHe had a great career here and he\u2019s done a lot of thing for Manchester United and for me. I am still in contact with him and very happy to talk to him sometimes, when we can. Talking about him is something great because he did a lot for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
