Manchester United star offered substantial pay increase to move to Saudi Arabia

David de Gea reportedly has lucrative offers on the table if he leaves Manchester United this summer.

The Spaniard is garnering interest from Saudi Arabia and should he agree a deal, he would become one of numerous players to make the switch from the Premier League to the Saudi Pro League, with Chelsea quartet N’Golo Kante, Edouard Mendy, Hakim Ziyech and Kalidou Koulibaly all leaving Europe for the Middle East over the past fortnight.

United are now in talks with Inter Milan’s Andre Onana over a potential reunion with Erik ten Hag for a fee of around £50 million.

Meanwhile, De Gea’s contract will expire in eight days and there is yet to be an extension signed by either party that would see him extend his 12-year stay at Old Trafford.

According to the Evening Standard, the 32-year-old could receive a significant pay rise if he moves to Saudi Arabia in the coming weeks. Currently, he earns £375,000 per week with the Red Devils but would see this amount slashed if he did sign a fresh deal in M16.

  1. De Gea has been one of uniteds best players, especially since fergi left. He almost single handedly kept united in the premier league. Unfortunately the game has now included the keeper as a profilic player. He is in the same league as Aaron. Would be sad to see him leave. Would have been nice to see him earn some more trophies.

  2. Have to agree with Vinesh and Roland, De Gea has been the one person keeping us from further humiliation over the years. Deserves a lot more respect than people are giving him. He is still a world class goalkeeper.
