Fabrizio Romano update on situation between Manchester United and David de Gea
David de Gea is now out of contact, with United contract expiring on June 30. The Spaniard was initially offered a renewal, which the club later withdrew. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on the situation between the club and the player.
Speaking to Monday’s DeBrief podcast, Romano said (via caughtoffside):
“He (De Gea) will have a conversation with Manchester United; it will happen this week. I am sure United will also speak again with Inter Milan for Andre Onana because there is a concrete conversation but not an official bid for Onana.”
Romano added:
“Also, they have other options for a new goalkeeper; it’s not only De Gea or Onana, they have other possibilities. Another option is to sign a different goalkeeper and keep De Gea so to create more competition with a second goalkeeper. But it will all depend on the conversations that will happen this week.”
The Spaniard has been a stalwart for the Red Devils since arriving from Atletico Madrid for €18 million in 2011. He has made 545 appearances for the Red Devils across competitions, keeping 145 clean sheets.
He won the Premier League Golden Glove award last season. While he made a few costly errors last term, there’s no denying the player’s quality despite his lack of ball-playing ability. Fans will keep a keen eye on how his situation at Old Trafford evolves.
