Manchester United owe much to Marouane Fellaini, but especially to David De Gea for his victory at Old Trafford against the Young Boys of Berne this Tuesday in the Champions League. Indeed, the Spanish goalkeeper of the Red Devils has released a great performance against the Swiss, including an absolutely incredible stop where he was looking for a ball that was promised to find the net. However, his future is still uncertain.
In the sports pages of his edition of the day, The Independent revealed this morning that the Mancunians would have resolved to lose their Spanish goalkeeper, the end of the contract at the end of the season with an option to extend a year. So they chased a new high-ranking goalkeeper to defend the goals of their formation, and two names would have been stopped in Ed Woodward's mind to replace him: Jordan Pickford (Everton) and Jan Oblak (Atlético de Madrid). But in the afternoon, Sky Sports provided further information about De Gea.
A new long-term contract?
At the end of the contract in June, the Spanish international should finally stay one more year. Indeed, the leaders of the Red Devils would have managed to convince the 28 year old player to stay, and they would have activated the option of his contract as explained in the British media. The native of Madrid, who arrived in Manchester in 2011 from Atlético de Madrid, his training club, should stay a year more at the boarders of Old Trafford, until the summer of 2020. But the negotiations would also continue behind the scenes.
Sky Sports also explains that the Mancunian management would still discuss with David De Gea to propose a new long-term contract. Ultimately, MU would not be ready to let go of his No. 1 goalkeeper in all Premier League and Champions League matches this season (he did not play in the EFL Cup against Derby County). A good record to close thus for MU and Jose Mourinho, who had been confident a few days ago concerning his porter.
