I love this club, says De Gea after rejecting Man United initial Renewed Contract
David De Gea has responded to the free agency rumors by saying that he loves the club very much and will stay at the Manchester-based club amid rumors that he has rejected the new contract offer.
De Gea rejects Man United contract renewal
With the current deal of the Spanish Goalkeeper running down and no contract being signed there are strong rumors that the goalkeeper who has been at the club since 2011 will not leave the club as of yet.
De Gea’s statement to Sky Sports
De Gea has told Sky Sports: “I’ve been here many, many years, enjoying every moment in this club playing many games. Of course, it’s great to be here, it’s a massive club and I love the club and I’m really happy here, of course.
It’s been the same over the years, there’s a lot of noise around the club but players just focus on games, especially the one we have on Sunday – a massive game for us because we want to finish in the top four. Like I say, we have many, many games so I think we have to be caring on training, recovering well, helping the team and that’s the most important thing, more than contracts or anything.”
De Gea’s record for Manchester United
De Gea has made over 520 appearances for United, has broken the records for most clean sheets as a United Keeper, and has helped the Red Devils to Premier League, Europa League, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup triumphs.
United have been linked with several other keepers as questions are asked of De Gea’s ongoing presence at Old Trafford, but there is plenty to be said for stability and continuity, and the Red Devils will – having to revise their salary budget– be eager to find a solution that suits all parties.
