- Trabzonspor president Ertugrul Dogan has since spoken publicly about the goalkeeper's condition
Manchester United loanee Andre Onana was involved in a road traffic accident in Turkey on Thursday evening, with Trabzonspor president Ertugrul Dogan confirming that the goalkeeper and his family went through a frightening ordeal before he was given the all-clear.
The incident occurred after another vehicle collided with Onana's £100,000 Hongqi E-HS9, an electric SUV often referred to as the "Chinese Rolls Royce," causing him to careen into the car directly in front of him. The chain collision left both the player and his family shaken.

As noted by Daily Star, Onana was taken to hospital for assessment following the crash but was discharged shortly afterwards, with medical staff finding no serious injuries.
The accident came on the same evening the Cameroonian shot-stopper had put in a solid performance between the posts, keeping a clean sheet as Trabzonspor defeated Hearts 2-0 in the UEFA Conference League.
Dogan moved quickly to address public concern, offering reassurance about the player's wellbeing.
"Andre Onana was involved in a road traffic accident earlier this evening. There are no problems with him, and we wish him a speedy recovery," he said via Goal.
Onana joined Trabzonspor on loan from Manchester United as part of his career rebuild after a difficult spell at Old Trafford. The 28-year-old has been working to rediscover the form that made him one of Europe's most sought-after goalkeepers during his time at Ajax and Inter Milan.
