JAKARTA - David De Gea's future at Manchester United is now a question mark. The reason is, there is no sign that the player will extend his contract.
De Gea's contract expires in June 2023. He is currently the goalkeeper with the largest salary in the English Premier League.
That status he got after in 2019 the Spanish player signed a contract extension with a salary value of 375,000 per week.
De Gea himself currently has not thought about his contract problem which is nearing its end. Instead, he wanted to focus on the game to help his club win.
"It's time to focus because we played a lot of games in a row. It's not time to lose focus and think about contracts. My goal is to keep going and play my best," De Gea was quoted as saying by The Mirror via Antara.
De Gea was recruited from Atletico Madrid in 2011, making himself the only remaining player from the Sir Alex Ferguson era.
The 32-year-old goalkeeper is ready to stay at Old Trafford despite the Red Devils' management offering a relatively low contract.
But Manchester United coach Erik Ten Hag wants a new goalkeeper who is typical of being a modern goalkeeper who can distribute the ball.
Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa and Brentford goalkeeper David Raya became the two candidates targeted by the Dutch coach to compete with De Gea.
