According to The Athletic, De Gea has told close friends that he is willing to return to Manchester United if current manager Erik ten Hag is sacked.
De Gea has been a free agent for over a year since leaving Old Trafford last summer, and has been keeping himself fit through individual training.
His future was unclear at the time of his departure, and he was denied a proper send-off by Manchester United. He was also disappointed with then-manager Erik ten Hag and football director John Murtough.
It has been reported that De Gea told close friends that he would be happy to return to Old Trafford if both of them left the club. Murtough has since left Manchester United following a restructuring of the club’s management team, but Ten Hag, who was once on the brink of being sacked, has signed a new contract and remained in charge.
TA analysis suggests that De Gea is unlikely to return to Manchester United this summer, given that Ten Hag is still in charge and goalkeeping coach Richard Hartis has left the club. His potential next destination includes Saudi Pro League and MLS teams, although De Gea could also choose to stay in European football.
