According to The Sun, Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea is set to sign a new long-term contract with a significant pay cut. This season, the Spain international has performed admirably in goal for United, making numerous world-class saves.
A new contract is being discussed with the club, and the board intends to offer him a renewal with significant bonuses.
Manchester United is currently chasing a goalkeeper with Crystal Palace's Jack Butland "definitely has legs," according to journalist Dean Jones.
The Red Devils are searching for a backup goalkeeper to first-choice shot-stopper David de Gea after Martin Dubravka was recalled from his loan spell early by Newcastle United. This has led to a lack of options for Erik Ten Hag at Manchester United.
Sky Sports reporter had recently reported earlier today that Butland is "close to signing" for United on a straight loan deal until the end of the season which would be a huge boost to the club. It is also claimed that Erik ten Hag's charges will pay all of the England international's £40,000-per-week wage packet and that a medical is scheduled to take place in the next 24 hours at Old Trafford.
The two fierce Manchester rivals will be coming up against each other once again when they face each other in the EFL Cup semifinals. The match is likely to witness Dean Henderson between the goal for United.
After spending several seasons on loan at various clubs like Stockport County, Grimsby town, Shrewsbury Town, and Sheffield United, Henderson is finally having the chance to prove himself at United. The 23-year-old may have only featured in seven games so far this season, but he has already proven to be a worthy understudy for David de Gea.
Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku has leaped into the defence of goalkeeper David de Gea amid his torrid run of form of late. The Spaniard has been culpable for making keeping mistakes which have cost the team over the past month and one of those came during the 1-1 Premier League draw against Chelsea, which has hampered their prospects of making the top four.
Speaking to the club’s official website, Lukaku described De Gea as a very positive person and suggested that he has been the club’s standout performer in the past few seasons. He added that the shot-stopper will return to his best form in due course, considering he will learn from the mistakes made in recent weeks.
Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has welcomed French international Paul Pogba to Old Trafford and he says that it is like that the midfielder never left the club.
Marcus Rashford is making a name for himself in this season as the 18 year old player has scored 4 goals in 7 appearances for Manchester United in the current campaign.
The English attacker has helped out his team in staying in the upper section of the Premier League, his latest contribution to the squad was evident during Manchester United’s match against Aston Villa where he was the only player who scored a goal and it was enough for the team of Louis van Gaal to seal a victory and secure 3 points.
Rashford joined the youth academy of Manchester United back when he was 7 years old but it a few months ago when he managed to make his official appearance in a competitive match for the Premier League club and so far his impact has been undeniable.
