Over the summer, Erik ten Hag and the staff at Old Trafford signed several new players to permanent and loan contracts. After Jonny Evans departed Leicester City, the club took advantage of the free agent market to sign him. Due to defensive injuries, the centre defender has started three Premier League games already this season, and he assisted on Bruno Fernandes’ game-winning goal against Burnley.
Man United also received transfer payments for players including Dean Henderson, Anthony Elanga, and Fred, who all left the club over the summer. However, players like Phil Jones, Axel Tuanzebe, and David de Gea had their contracts at Old Trafford expire. The Spaniard, who was replaced by Andre Onana in the summer, has yet to find a new club, and it appears that he may be returning to the Red Devils.
Recently, The Sun reported that three months after releasing the great goalkeeper David de Gea, Manchester United are contemplating an astounding attempt to get him back on a free transfer. According to the source, the club is eager to reunite with De Gea because they are concerned about their lack of depth when Onana travels to the Africa Cup of Nations in the new year.
Recently, De Geа hаs been seen in Mаnchester with Brunо Fernаndes, аnd the twо were аlsо seen getting cоffee with Tоm Heаtоn, Rаphаel Vаrаne, аnd Victоr Lindelоf аfter their teаm beаt Sheffield United 2-1. Eаrlier this yeаr, fоrmer bоss Ten Hаg prаised the fоrmer gоаlkeeper, cаlling De Geа the “cоmplete gоаlkeeper.”
“David is an extremely versatile and full-featured goalkeeper. We couldn’t be happier with him.
When Onana leaves for AFCON in the New Year, Ten Hag will only have Heaton and the newly signed Altay Bayindir as senior alternatives, so a reunion with De Gea could make sense, but it would raise concerns as to why he was released in the first place.
We all know that if De Gea were to return to the league, he would bring with him a wealth of experience at the greatest level, and if the 32-year-old continues to be without a club, this situation could be one to monitor in the coming months.
