Just wondering if the club and De Gea can't reach an agreement over a new contract are there many clubs who hold an interest?
Personally I'd let him go. Too high wages for his sporadic performances.

{Ed002's Note - David De Gea (G) If Mr Mourinho stays at Roma, which I think unlikely, then perhaps interest. perhaps someone in Spain.}

Can't see anyone in spain outside the top 3 getting anywhere near his wages even if reduced. 200k a week is massive for most clubs in Spain. Even top 3, who are already set as far as goalies go, would not pay anything close to his wages.

He will extend and just hope we don't do anything silly like 4/ 5 years. 2 years I reckon.

He'll stay, 100%.

As Ahmad H says, his wages will eliminate any interest from Spain.
Same goes for all Bundesliga and Serie A clubs.

A high-profile player from any other position would be attractive to Saudi and Chinese clubs, but he's a goalkeeper - keepers do not draw in the crowds.

Therefore, he will stay.

It's a tricky one for all concerned.

Rumours that DDG has rejected a 200k per week offer, unsurprising if true given his current deal is for around 350k per week.

The other issue is that United are reportedly looking for a new No.1 regardless of whether DDG stays or not.

If true then DDG faces accepting a massive paycut to effectively sit on the bench. Something I'm not sure he'll be happy to do.

Which leaves the player and the club at a stand off.

From Untied's perspective keeping DDG on a lower wage means they have a insurance policy incase any new signing struggles.

While if both DDG and Henderson leave then United will need to sign two new keepers, a first choice and a back up keeper.

What do you guys think the length of a new deal should be? We all know he will be overpaid but by how many years? Maybe a 1 year plus 1 year option would be best.

hoping for 2 but given our past record they will probably give him 3/ 4 years like the village idiots:) Not bad to earn 10mill a year as a soon to be number 2 keeper.

Thing is - if he is out of contract and hasn't agreed a new reduced wage deal with us then he goes, simple really? his bargaining power is diminished and its time for him to move on imo- we shouldn't be paying anyone 200k a week to be a number 2 irregardless of past performances: he was after all employed to put in those performances.

He is a good goalie but has weaknesses that teams will target. playing it from the back is not his thing and will force more howlers and his command on corners is non existent and get the fan base riled up with more mistakes.

Kicking it away given we hardly win a header in the middle of the park is not playing to our strength.

Unrelated to DDG our issue with our front line is everyone likes ball to feet and besides Rashford ever makes a run to get behind defenders.

Legendary united striker was explaining this recently to me when I asked why we are struggling for goals as we don't stretch teams with enough runs.

Get rid. he isn't worth 200 grand a week.

I would get rid if bringing another in to be starter. I don't think its the best use of money to pay De Gea to sit on the bench and i can't see, even with a reduction in wages, him not being the highest paid backup GK in the world.

We also have to find someone to shift Henderson too as well. I say shift because he's on a lot of money a week as well.

De Gea doeant fit what Ten Hag wamts to do, so keeping him would be a mistake and would have me questioning as to why.
