When Erik ten Hag withdrew the new contract offer for David de Gea at United, it not only surprised many but also marked the starting point of the end of De Gea’s tenure at Old Trafford.
It became evident that the Dutch manager had a keen interest in acquiring Andre Onana for the club, given the 27-year-old’s exceptional skills with his feet, a quality the manager sought in a goalkeeper.
De Gea fell short in meeting these criteria, and his error in the FA Cup final against Manchester City seemed to be the decisive moment for a manager who had supported the Spanish goalkeeper despite his previous mistakes up to that point.
Having been without a club since the summer, David de Gea is in no hurry to alter his current circumstances.
According to Fabrizio Romano’s exclusive Daily Briefing for CaughtOffside, “David de Gea is still in a very quiet situation, and there’s no urgency in making a decision about his future.
He will take the time with his family to decide, but as of now, I’m not aware of any imminent developments. Nothing has changed since October when he wasn’t convinced by the proposals he received in the final weeks of the summer transfer window.”
After being away from professional football and its associated demands for an extended period, there is a perspective that suggests the Spaniard may be open to retiring from goalkeeping.
Even though goalkeepers typically have longer careers at the top level compared to outfield players, if David de Gea’s passion has waned and he finds contentment in his current situation, it might not be considered a wrong decision for him to step away from the game.
