David de Gea (32, Manchester United) could leave Old Trafford. Contract talks are not going well.
European transfer market expert Fabgiorgio Romano tweeted on Wednesday (June 23), “Manchester United have found out the terms of Andre Onana’s contract. Onana is in manager Eric ten Hagh’s plans. If Manchester United part ways with De Gea, they will keep an eye on Onana.”
De Gea joined Manchester United in 2011. Alex Ferguson recognized his talent and brought him in from Atletico Madrid. De Gea initially struggled to adapt to the Premier League, but he grew under Ferguson’s trust and became United’s number one goalkeeper.
He single-handedly kept United afloat after Ferguson’s departure. He was once linked to Real Madrid, but after the ‘fax incident’ broke down, he stayed with United. In 2019, he signed a new contract under Mourinho and has been at United until this season.
He struggled under Van Gaal, but was criticized for his mistakes and shaky footwork. With De Gea’s age, United may be considering a new goalkeeping competition. According to local reports, they are in talks to extend his contract, but it’s not easy.
Global sports outlet The Athletic reported that “De Gea and Manchester United have failed to reach an agreement on a new contract. If no deal is reached, he will become a free agent on July 1. De Gea has communicated his desire to return to Manchester United after his vacation, but a solution has not been found.” 메이저놀이터
De Gea is on a very high salary at Manchester United. He is willing to take a pay cut to stay at Manchester United, but the Red Devils have been cold in their response. “If De Gea does leave, United will need to secure a new number one goalkeeper,” according to the UK’s Football Fancast.
As previously reported, Onana is a top priority. “He is the right goalkeeper for Van Gaal’s system. Pep Guardiola was also very complimentary of Onana.” In fact, Guardiola said, “Onana is an exceptional goalkeeper. He has an excellent build-up position. He’s a very good player.”
