Manchester United are beginning to send more players out on loan this season. Jacob Devaney sorted out his future yesterday as he joined Scottish side Hibernian on loan for the rest of the season.
Altay Bayindir was on the bench for Celta Vigo but did not make his debut in their 0-0 draw with Valencia on Saturday.
Two players who are playing regularly for their loan sides, however, are Sekou Kone and Andre Onana.
Andre Onana
Onana helped his side, Trabzonspor, beat İstanbul Başakşehir F.K. through two goals by former Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah.
There was little he could do when the away side converted a 19th-minute penalty and the Cameroonian was sent the other way. In the 41st minute, he did well to tip away a goal-bound effort from a breakaway.
His best moment came in the 86th minute when he turned away a volley inside the box and helped preserve his side’s lead.
He made a total of three saves and completed 75% of his passes.
Onana also recovered the ball six times in the match as his side won a tight game.
Sekou Kone
The Malian has started the season really well with a goal and two assists, but Saturday’s match against Luzern was not his day as his side lost 0-1.
He started in a more advanced role but could not influence the match. Kone did not make any key passes and only completed seven of his passes.
Kone did complete his only dribble attempt and also won both his ground duels in the match.
The midfielder was poor in the air, though, losing all three of his aerial battles.
