David de Gea’s high salary demand prevented him from joining Genoa.
Britain’s “Sky Sports” reported on the 28th (Korea time) that “De Gea’s transfer to Genoa has been suspended for now. Genoa is unlikely to pursue the contract due to De Gea’s unrealistic salary expectations.”
De Heja was the dominant goalkeeper in the Premier League in the past. His strength was his outstanding defense capability based on his natural long arm and reflexes. He immediately became the main goalkeeper after his debut with Atletico Madrid in the 2009-10 season.
De Gea participated in 35 matches during his debut season as a pro, contributing to his team’s victory in the UEFA Europa League. It was widely evaluated that he has the qualifications to become the world’s best goalkeeper. After the season ended, many big clubs began to have interest in him.
The most aggressive was Manchester United. At the time, the goal was empty due to the retirement of Edvin van de Sarr. De Gea joined Manchester United ahead of the 2011-12 season.
He needed time to adapt when he joined the team, but he soon showed his skills. De Gea played in 545 games while wearing a Manchester United uniform for 12 years. He won the Golden Glove including the PL title.
However, his position began to falter. Erik ten Hag took charge of Manchester United in the 2022-23 season. Ten Hag preferred a goalkeeper who could build up, but De Gea did not have good foot skills. At the same time, De Gea’s skills began to decline little by little.
In the end, Manchester United gave up renewing contract with De Gea and hired Andre Onana. De Gea recognized other teams as a free agent. Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, Real Madrid and others showed interest in him, but he did not continue to join the team.
Rumors had it that De Gea would join Real Betis in the transfer window last winter, but the rumors soon subsided. De Gea spent the past year without finding a team to which she belongs. Some even predicted that she might choose to retire.안전놀이터
De Gea plans to continue his active career. Fortunately, Genoa will be interested ahead of this summer’s transfer window. Zoep Martinez, who was the main goalkeeper until last season, has moved to Inter Milan. Currently, there are not enough players to keep the goal.
However, the transfer suddenly stopped. De Gea reportedly demanded a high salary. “De Gea’s transfer to Genoa has been suspended for now. Genoa is unlikely to seek a contract due to his unrealistic salary expectations. Genoa will focus on alternative targets,” Sky Sports said.
