Manchester United are committed to renewing David de Gea’s contract. However, there is no guarantee that he will be the main goalkeeper next season.
Global media ‘ESPN’ reported, “Man United is committed to retaining De Gea next season, but he is not guaranteed to continue playing as the club’s ‘No. 1’.”
De Gea has been at Manchester United’s bottom line for 12 years. After being called to Old Trafford in 2011 by Sir Alex Ferguson, he immediately became the main goalkeeper and won the last league title for Manchester United in the 2012-13 season, and also helped the team win the English Football League Cup (EFL Cup) this season.
But mistakes are often made. De Gea’s mistake also split the game against West Ham United last time. De Gea conceded a goal in the 27th minute of the first half by not catching or parrying Saeed Benrama’s weak shot. It was a shot that should have been blocked if you were the goalkeeper of a club aiming for the European Football Federation (UEFA) Champions League (UCL).
He became the worst goalkeeper in the Premier League (EPL). Football statistics media ‘Opta’ said on SNS after the game, “De Gea has committed four ‘mistakes leading to goals’ in all competitions this season, which is the most in the EPL along with Hugo Lloris.” 토토사이트
First of all, coach Eric ten Haag is sending trust. “We hope to extend the contract with De Gea. He has the most clean sheets in the Premier League. Without him, Manchester United would not be where we are today,” he expressed his unwavering faith.
It is also close to renewing the contract. According to ESPN, United have an option to automatically extend De Gea’s contract until 2024, and they are eager for a long-term agreement that will reduce base wages and increase performance-related bonuses.
