Portuguese boss Amorim knows the past few weeks have been  difficult for both Onana and his understudy Altay Bayindir.

Onana has made bad mistakes in the two months Amorim has been in charge, while Bayindir committed two blunders in the Carabao Cup loss to Tottenham.

However, to get in a keeper   now   would   depend on Bayindir leaving.

Man Utd lost 2-0 to Newcastle at Old Trafford on Monday.

The result left Amorim’s side languishing in 14th going into the new year.

After the defeat, the United boss admitted that his side could be dragged into a relegation battle.

He said: “It is really hard. Relegation is a possibility. That is really clear so we have to fight.

“It is a really difficult moment, one of the more difficult moments in the history of Manchester United and we have to address it with honesty.

“We have to fight in the next game. We have to change something but this season will be really hard on everybody. It can make us stronger.

“I am responsible. I don’t like to arrive here and make excuses. I think people are tired of excuses in this club.

“I think our club needs a shock and we have to understand that.

“We have to acknowledge where we are – we have to win games and focus on surviving.”
