The 33-year-old goalkeeper, David De Gea, has been the subject of speculation regarding his future for the past 10 months. His high wage demands, stemming from his previous salary at Manchester United, have proven to be a stumbling block for potential suitors. Recent reports from Spain have linked him with a move to Real Betis, and De Gea has further fueled the speculation by posting a picture on social media. De Gea has been active on his Instagram account, keeping his 15.5 million followers updated since his departure from Manchester United.
It is evident that he is eager to return to club football and is determined to showcase his fitness and readiness. Despite leaving United, De Gea is still highly regarded in the football world. Pundits, such as Graeme Souness, have criticized United’s decision to let him go and spend a significant amount on a new goalkeeper. Souness believes that the money could have been better utilized in other areas of the team and that De Gea was still a top goalkeeper for the club.
