da apostebet： As reported by The Sun, Manchester United are on the verge of securing goalkeeper David De Gea on a new long-term contract, ending speculation he will move away from the club back to La Liga.
What’s the story?
da brwin： The paper reckon the shot-stopper is wanted by Real Madrid this summer, but United are convinced he is poised to sign a new deal after initial discussions earlier this season.
The details are now set to be hammered out before the player leaves for the World Cup at the end of the season.
The report says that he will earn a whopping £350k-a-week should he sign, making him the second highest earner in the club’s history behind Alexis Sanchez.
Is he worth that kind of cash?

How important is he?
De Gea is regarded as one of the finest goalkeepers in the world and week-to-week he’s made countless important saves for the Red Devils whether against less illustrious competition or in big European ties and derbies.
Replacing him is almost unthinkable, which is likely why the club are ready to invest so heavily in a new contract for the player.
At 27 years of age, the player likely has close to another decade of elite level goalkeeping left in him and ensuring the majority of that time is spent at United is a major boost to their trophy ambitions.
Securing his future, even at £350k-a-week, would be a fantastic bit of business by the club.
