David De Gea was one of the highest-paid goalkeepers in Europe. But his performance has reduced drastically in recent times, yet he still wants the same wage. Manchester United is unwilling to grant him such a lucrative contract. Andree Onana will be a better and cheaper alternative. He is still young and will spend more time with the Red Devils. If the deal to bring Onana fails the club might consider bringing back the loaned Dean Henderson from Nottingham Forest and also put much effort to sign the Japanese international goalkeeper Zion Suzuki.
De Gea's performance is not too bad He is even included in the ranks of the 4 best goalkeepers in the Premier League based on the number of goals conceded after all the success of Manchester United finished in 3rd place was due to De Gea's efforts it's just that Manchester thinks his ability will slowly decrease and they need to regenerate. I agree if the salary should be lowered and allocated to a new goalkeeper unfortunately De Gea did not agree and had to be released.
De Gea is an excellent goalkeeper. De Gea will remain at the top of the list of best goalkeepers in the world. And De Gea has been instrumental in Manchester United's Champions League qualification. Manchester United management should have tried to keep De Gea with the squad. But they didn't do it. Perhaps ten Hag has other plans. He may be looking for a younger goalkeeper for his squad. We may see some big changes in Manchester United's squad next season.
