Done Deal: Real Madrid Target Agree £18.4m Personal Terms With Man United

The heroics of De Dea in-between the sticks for Man United has divided opinions over his goalkeeping prowess but most of the football fan base have pitched their tent with the Spanish shot-stopper as the best in the world in his position.

Nonetheless, De Gea displayed a shabby performance for Spain in their world cup opener as he allowed Cristiano Ronaldo fired past him three goals.

The 27-year-old came close to joining Real Madrid in the summer of 2015 but it was a faulty fax machine that scuppered the move. Los Merengues were still linked with a move for the star but rife reports claims they have secured a deal for Alisson Becker.

Meanwhile, Man United have won the race to secure the service of De Gea after series of negotiations – Marcareveal an £18.4m-a-year contract agreement is now in place between United and the star.

Germany and Bayern Munich goalkeeper currently smiles to the bank for £13m but De Gea’s £350k-a-week eclipses the statement amount, and he’s become the most paid goalkeeper in the world.

Jose Mourinho will certainly be delighted to have the player who he has revered for saving Man United several points last season.

While the fans of United are already grinning over the this report, De Gea will only put pen to paper after the World Cup in Russia.
