Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano exclusively revealed to GIVEMESPORT that Manchester United star David De Gea is “discussing the final details” before signing a new contract at Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag’s ambition is to sign his first-choice custodian to new terms after leading the Red Devils back into the Champions League.
David De Gea is a recent addition to Man United.
De Gea has reportedly reached an agreement on a new deal with Manchester United that would result in a wage cut for him.
The Spanish international is not expected to depart Old Trafford despite the claim that the transaction has not yet been approved by the Red Devils administration following extensive conversations behind the scenes.
At the end of the month, De Gea’s current deal, which pays him £375,000 per week, is set to expire.
Despite the fact that the 32-year-old is about to devote his future to Manchester United, wealthy Saudi Arabian teams are making attempts to entice him away from the Premier League.
De Gea has received a hefty deal, according to transfer insider Dean Jones, but he hasn’t been tempted to move to the Middle Eastern nation like Cristiano Ronaldo has.
What remarks on De Gea has Fabrizio Romano made?
Romano is aware that Manchester United has spent several months trying to persuade De Gea to sign a new contract.
The esteemed Italian journalist is aware that image rights must be discussed before the shot-stopper will agree to a contract.
Romano stated: “The verbal agreement is virtually there, and it has been since the end of March, in an interview with GIVEMESPORT on Tuesday.
The last-minute details are being discussed. Just the last details of it are discussed in the final clause, which is something about the image rights.
Does De Gea at Manchester United deserve a new deal?
Without a question, De Gea has served Manchester United admirably since moving there from Atletico Madrid in a trade that, according to BBC Sport,, was valued close to £19 million 12 years ago.
With 545 appearances for the Red Devils and 190 clean sheets along the way, he has firmly established himself in the number one jersey.
De Gea has also been a reliable performer, which is highlighted by the fact that he won the Golden Glove for the 2022–23 season despite having the most shutouts of any Premier League goalkeeper.
The Spaniard made 101 saves before the top division season’s conclusion last month, according to Sofascore data, and ten Hag is obviously a fan.
De Gea has been dubbed “magnificent” by the Manchester United manager, therefore it would be wise to sign him to a new deal with more favourable conditions.
