The 32-year-old’s contract with Manchester United expired at the end of June, and despite ongoing talks throughout the season, no new deal was agreed upon.
In a heartfelt message on social media, David De Gea expressed his gratitude to United fans for their unwavering support. However, he also stated that it is now time for him to embrace a new challenge and push himself in different surroundings.
Despite United’s announcement that they were still in talks with De Gea after his contract expired, reports emerged stating that the club had initially offered him an extension but later withdrew it, coming back with reduced terms.
Reflecting on his 12-year journey with Manchester United, De Gea recalled the immense pride he felt donning the club’s shirt and being entrusted with the responsibility of leading the team, representing one of the world’s greatest institutions in football. He expressed his deep gratitude for the love and support received and acknowledged the significant achievements made during his time at the club.
United manager Erik ten Hag has reportedly been pursuing the signing of a new goalkeeper in this transfer window, with a deal for Inter Milan’s Andre Onana said to be nearing completion. Despite this, the Dutchman paid tribute to De Gea for his contributions and recognized his outstanding achievements as one of the best goalkeepers in the club’s history.
