Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana has sparked reactions online after he was caught on camera leading his Cameroon teammates in song and dance.

Despite being benched for the cracker, Onana was caught on camera all smiles as he led his teammates in song and dance moments before the kick-off.

In a video widely shared on social media, the former Inter Milan ace can be seen holding a stereo in the tunnel as the Cameroonian team jammed to music playing in the background.

Onana's role in the short clip sparked reactions online, with one fan remarking:

"They found a new role for Onana."

@MrRightke joked:

"So all this time we have been thinking Onana is a goalkeeper we were wrong, he is a DJ🤔🤔."

@likeastar20 added:

"The perfect job for him."

Meanwhile, Rigobert Song's gamble to drop Onana paid off, with his charges securing a 3-2 win to book a spot in the last 16.
