A. Onana played 40 matches last season in the ranks of „Lille“, 13 of which were in the starting eleven. In those matches, the defensive midfielder scored one goal. Before that season, the Belgian played for „Hamburger SV“ in the second Bundeslig. The „West Ham“ team had already reached an agreement with „Lille“ regarding the transfer fee, but the player ultimately chose „Everton“. Soon, the „Toffees“ should officially add Idrissa Gueye to their squad, who returned to the Liverpool team after three years. Previously, the team added Ruben Vinagre, Dwight McNeil, Connor Coady, and James Tarkowski."
