Last season, David De Gea's contract extension became a hot topic in football. Who would have thought that the Manchester United goalkeeper, despite being forced to accept a pay cut, ended up as a free agent, ending a 12-year spell with the club.
We've watched David De Gea's free journey over the past eight months, only to find him as easy as he had hoped. Even attractive contracts from Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Newcastle, and even the Saudi league and MLS failed to entice De Gea to agree easily.
Nottingham Forest, another former Premier League team, also extended an offer to De Gea. However, like a fisherman throwing bait, De Gea shook his head at the Premier League proposal, as if to tell everyone: "This bait, Nottingham Forest, is too unattractive to me!" "It's a real wonder if De Gea is having romantic fantasies about being a free agent, or is he pursuing a job that appeals to him?
In fact, not only Nottingham Forest, but even the invitations of Real Betis and other teams, De Gea also politely declined one by one. If he wants a high salary, there are those who say Saudi Arabia is the best option, and truth be told, he could be the football version of the "oil tycoon" there. However, De Gea seems unfazed by the choice and may feel that no amount of sand on the pitch will stop him.
If you look into the distance, giants Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have extended olive branches and offered short-term contracts to welcome David De Gea back. However, he did not seem to hesitate to accept the invitations of these two giants, perhaps he thought to himself: "I am the goalkeeper of Manchester United, why bother to warm up a chair on the bench of these teams?" ”
De Gea, it seems, is not an easy person to satisfy. Even after returning to the Premier League, Nottingham Forest have extended an olive branch to the hope of having the former Manchester United goalkeeper. However, it is a pity that De Gea is not moved by the ** of the Premier League, as if to say: "Your Premier League is not suitable for me, a goalkeeper who is used to watching the ball fly overhead." ”
Perhaps David De Gea is looking for a different kind of football experience, and he has been looking for that feeling in his free journey. He may want to challenge himself, try a new league, become a football ranger, or he may be waiting for a football version of the galaxy. It's also possible that he was just waiting for an invitation that really tickled his heart, one that would not only double his salary, but also satisfy his love for football.
Of course, this has also sparked conjecture and discussion among fans, as if on a football version of the "single dating" platform. Netizens have left messages, speculating where De Gea will choose Longtan Tiger's Den, or find his football fate in **. There are also many fans who joke that De Gea may be waiting for a ** contract invited by Ronaldo himself, after all, the "brother" has a good relationship, and maybe a "friendship" contract makes him even more excited.
This freelance football adventure is unpredictable, like a good movie, and we don't yet know which finale De Gea will ultimately choose. Perhaps he is already waiting for a football version of the prince to save the princess's invitation, or he is simply waiting for a football version of the "gold master" to appear and inject new life into his football life.
De Gea's persistence in this free agent journey is also admirable. He may be chasing a dream, a football story that makes his heart flutter. And as fans, we are also looking forward to a wonderful ending to this story. Regardless of which team De Gea chooses, we hope he will continue to make great saves for the fans on the new stage and add more legends to the wonderful sport of football.
Which team do you think De Gea will pick in the end? Will you return to the Premier League or go to the Saudi league? Leave a message to tell us your guesses and expectations! Let's look forward to a new chapter in De Gea's footballing life.
