Cameroonian goalkeeper Andre Onana has been advised by former Inter Milan midfielder Wesley Sneijder not to join Premier League side Arsenal in the transfer window.

This is because of Arsenal's inability to qualify for the Champions League for the past three seasons in which Sneijder sees as a big deficiency.

At the just concluded Premier League season, Arsenal also failed to finish among the top four and they won't play in the Champions League or Europa League.

The Gunners' chiefs are looking for another goalkeeper and they see Andre Onana as someone who will help the quest to return to Europe.

According to the report on GOAL, Wesley Sneijder explained that Andre Onana should rather move to Real Madrid or Barcelona.

"I expect him to leave. I think he is a great goalkeeper. European top? Yes, certainly.
"I'd rather not see him at Arsenal. It's a fantastic club, but it has slipped in recent years. I'd rather see him play at Real Madrid or FC Barcelona."
