Due to the absence of Romelu Lukaku and Kevin De Bruyne at the Red Devils, the captain issue has suddenly become topical again. Jan Vertonghen is now by far the most experienced international in the squad, but Amadou Onana is also being looked at. “It would be an honor, but I can certainly live with it if I don’t get the band.”
No Courtois, no De Bruyne and no Lukaku. Is Amadou Onana now the leader of the Red Devils?
“One of the leaders,” says the midfielder. “I don’t shy away from that responsibility. I like to talk to my teammates and try to help them where I can, on and off the field.”
“But there are still experienced players, such as Jan Vertonghen. So I am certainly not alone.”
Does Onana secretly hope for the captaincy against Ireland? “You have to ask the coach. I will just be there in my role on and off the field.”
“The captain’s armband would be an honor. That is also one of my goals. I think I also have the qualities to be captain. But if I don’t get the armband, I can understand that. I will stay the same Onana, with or without bracelet.”
“The upcoming international matches will be two interesting exams. They are good teams and they will be intense matches.”
