Former Man United goalkeeper David De Gea appears to be changing his mind about playing in the Saudi Pro League. According to multiple reports, De Gea recently engaged in talks with SPL side Al Shabab.

De Gea has been a free agent since his contract with Manchester United expired in the summer. The Spaniard rejected an offer from Saudi Arabia at the time, preferring to remain in Europe.

Since then, De Gea has been linked with multiple clubs, including La Liga’s Betis and Premier League’s Newcastle United, but neither move came to fruition. The 33-year-old player is still holding hopes to sign with a European club but reportedly has become more open to a move to Saudi Arabia as his options dwindled down.

Al-Shabab is currently sitting 11th in the Saudi Pro League standings. They already have several players who used to play in Europe, including former Wolverhampton Wanderers’ center back Romain Saïss and Belgian star winger Yannick Carrasco.

Aside from De Gea, the Al-Shabab is reportedly also targeting several big names. They are on the verge of completing a deal with Croatian veteran Ivan Rakitic while also targeting Fulham’s Andreas Pereira and Newcastle’s Miguel Almiron. The club also approached manager Jose Mourinho shortly after he was sacked by AS Roma.

Former Manchester United David de Gea is surprisingly still a free agent, but it isn’t because of a lack of offers. Reportedly, de Gea is taking a patient approach and considering various options, one of which could be a move to Major League Soccer.

According to English media outlet The Sun, de Gea currently has an offer on the table from Saudi Arabia side Al Nassr that would see him earn more than £500,000-a-week in salary. However, the player isn’t keen on the move and would rather join Inter Miami.

De Gea is believed to be attracted to Miami for several reasons. Besides the opportunity to live in the United States and be a part of the rising league, he would also get to play with familiar faces in fellow former Spain national team members Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.

There are several other clubs, however, that could provide Inter Miami a tough competition for de Gea’s services. This includes La Liga’s Valencia and Manchester United, who would be interested in a short-term deal with their former goalkeeper as their current No. 1, Andre Onana, plans to play at the Africa Cup of Nations.

David de Gea ended his 12-year stint with Manchester United after his contract expired this past summer. He played 545 games with the club and was part of the team that won the club’s most recent Premier League title in 2012–13.

Manchester United hasn’t been a Premier League title contender for the past several years, but the team’s goalie David De Gea believes this will change next season.

After a poor start of the season, Man Utd bounced back in the second part of 2019/20 and find themselves in a position to claim a UEFA Champions League spot for the next season. According to De Gea, the team now looks to carry over this momentum into 2020/21 and finally challenge the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City.

“We are Manchester but it’s been too long without competing for important things and I think from now on, starting next season, we have to compete for those big titles,” De Gea told reporters in a recent interview with DAZN Espana.

De Gea is one of the rare players on Man Utd’s current roster that knows how it feels to lift the Premier League trophy. He arrived at the club in 2011 and was part of the title-winning squad in 2012/13.

“I know what it is like to win a Premier League with this club. I know what it means to win something big,” he added. “I want people to know again what this club is, and I want to help with that. And I hope I can stay many years here.”

Since 2013, Man Utd won League Cup, FA Cup, and Europa League. However, De Gea obviously doesn’t think these are important competitions and has his eyes on Premier League and Champions League.

David de Gea is rightfully considered one of the most successful goalkeepers in the history of European football and as such, many clubs have tried to recruit this legendary player into their ranks. His fate and future were things that were often rumored during this summer’s transfer season, especially after the last offer his current club Manchester United made in July.  

Now finally the negotiations that lasted for almost 2 years are finished and the goalkeeper put pen to paper on a new contract with Manchester United. The 28-year-old De Gea signed a five-year-long contract that will keep him at Old Trafford until 2023 and the contract has a special clause that will allow him to extend it for one more season. 

De Gea said that with his future being fixed, all he wants is to help his team achieve what he believes they can and win trophies again together. He added that the opportunity to continue his career at Manchester United was a genuine honor. 

The Spaniard joined Manchester United back in 2011 from the La Liga club Atletico Madrid and has made more than 350 appearances wearing the Red Devils jersey.

One of the best goalkeepers in the world, David De Gea, is considering leaving Manchester United next summer and joining Serie A’s recorders Juventus. A lot has been speculated in the past transfer period that De Gea might leave the Red Devils due to their ambitions in the Premier League. 

Juventus are looking to replace their current goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny with one of the best in the world on that position next summer. They want to complete the so-called ‘dream team’ with Cristiano Ronaldo and the others, allowing them to finally attack the Champions League title. 

Manchester City and Paris-Saint Germain are the other two clubs that will try to land the Spanish national keeper next summer. However, it’s hard to believe that PSG will push another move on the goalkeeper position, as they landed Keylor Navas from Real Madrid this season. Manchester City already has Ederson, and Juventus is in a pole-position for De Gea’s signature. 

The Red Devils are planning to sign Atletico Madrid’s Jan Oblak if David De Gea leaves the club in the summer of 2020, putting United in a position to break down the world record transfer for a goalkeeper. Oblak’s release clause is $100 million.

Manchester United failed to secure goalkeeper David de Gea to a long-term contract before the start of the season, which led to speculation that the Spaniard might leave the club in the summer of 2020. But according to Man Utd legend Peter Schmeichel, that won’t be the case.

Schmeichel, who was a goalkeeper for United between 1991 and 1999, recently had a chat with The Mirror in which he suggested that De Gea already has an agreement with the club to make a long-term commitment.

“David was a great signal that we start off with arguably our best performer over the last five years,” – Schmeichel told the magazine. “We have tied him down, he is staying, and now we move on and build on that.”

If true, this is excellent news for Manchester United, considering that David De Gea was the club’s best player in the past several years. De Gea joined United in 2011 and has helped the team to win their last Premier League title as well as UEFA Europa League trophy. He played 363 games with the club in nine years and established himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the world in the process.

De Gea’s reluctance to sign a new deal with Manchester led to him being linked with several other high-profile European clubs in the past, including Real Madrid. He ended up remaining in Premier League, and it seems like that will be the case for years to come.

Premier League giants Manchester United are increasingly frustrated with the unwillingness of their goalkeeper David De Gea to commit to a long-term deal with the club. This, combined with De Gea’s poor form in recent weeks, has now reportedly inspired Man Utd to seek a replacement for the 28-year-old Spaniard with Atletico Madrid’s goalie Jan Oblak emerging as their top target.

Although Oblak signed a new deal with Atletico in April, he has a buyout clause of $135 million. It is believed that United would gladly pay this amount as he is considered one of the best goalkeepers in the world.

David De Gea, who has one year left on his contract, was considered to be one of Manchester United’s best players in the recent five years but has made several costly mistakes in this season including the abysmal error against Chelsea over the weekend. United got to a 1-0 lead early in the game, but towards the end of the first half, De Gea made a poor intervention which resulted in Chelsea goal. The game remained tied and even further jeopardized Manchester’s hopes of reaching the Champions League next season.

Jan Oblak has been linked with several top European teams in the past few years but has stated on several occasions that he would like to remain with Atletico Madrid. According to sources close to the club, however, Oblak might rethink his decision if Atletico fails to strengthen the team in the near future and allow him to compete with rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga.
