David de Gea, a legendary player for Manchester United, has hinted at the possibility of making a comeback to professional football after an absence of more than a year.
Since being released by United in the summer of 2017, the goalkeeper has not been able to find a new club to play for. In the 2023 FA Cup final, Manchester United was defeated by Manchester City by a score of 2-1, which brought an end to his 12-year connection with Old Trafford. His time at Old Trafford would come to an end.
After training during his free time, the two-time winner of the Premier League Golden Glove has kept his supporters and followers updated on his development. He has been alternating between Altrincham’s Moss Rose Stadium and the headquarters of the Spanish football organization. Using the emoji of an hourglass that was not yet finished, the 33-year-old individual posted a mysterious statement on Twitter on Saturday.
After several high-profile stars from the Premier League and Europe made the move to the Middle East, it was rumored that the Spaniard declined a lucrative move to Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League in November 2023. This move would have allowed him to rejoin with Cristiano Ronaldo, who was also a member of the team.
Uncertainty persists regarding the location of his subsequent transfer and if it will take place in England or elsewhere. During the previous season, Newcastle United experienced a crisis in terms of goalkeeping injuries, which led to rumors of a potential transfer for the free agent De Gea. However, manager Eddie Howe refuted any speculations that the Spaniard would return to the Premier League.
He made the following statement: “I’ve seen a lot of headlines in the media regarding goalkeepers and other players.” There has been no inquiry made by our team. Right now, if we were to recruit, we would be looking for players in every single position on the field. The other keepers will have the opportunity to strengthen their standings using this opportunity.
Because of this, he did not transfer to Tyneside, and he is currently in his thirteenth month without a club to call his own.
