Cameroonian goalkeeper André Onana has left hospital after a road accident in Turkey following Thursday evening’s Conference League match between Trabzonspor and Hearts. The Trabzonspor player, who was returning home with his family, was hit from behind before his vehicle struck the one in front, reports Africatopsports, citing Turkish and English media as well as the club.

Trabzonspor president Ertuğrul Doğan confirmed the accident and said that “there is nothing serious, nothing critical”, according to TRT Sport. Onana, who has been loaned by Manchester United to the Turkish club for a second consecutive season, has played 45 matches for Trabzonspor.

The Cameroonian goalkeeper’s participation in the next league match against Rizespor, scheduled for Monday evening, remains uncertain, according to Africatopsports. Trabzonspor won 2-0 against Hearts thanks to goals from Mohamed Salah and Franculino Djú.
