Inter Miami president David Beckham wants former Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea as the MLS club’s next goalkeeper. The shot-stopper left Old Trafford as a free agent at the end of last season after 12 years in the Premier League but has yet to find a club five months later.<\/p>\n
De Gea, 33, did engage in discussions over a contract extension with Manchester United throughout the year. However, despite seeming like he would be prolonging his stay, no deal materialized this summer.<\/p>\n
The player later confirmed his departure on social media in early July following a breakdown in talks between the two parties. United soon moved on by replacing him with Andre Onana, who has become the club’s new number-one goalkeeper.<\/p>\n
Over the months since De Gea’s departure, he has rejected several chances to return to the sport, including from the Saudi Pro League. The Spaniard is said to be holding out on a return to his homeland, with La Liga clubs Real Betis and Valencia reportedly interested, per the Daily Star.<\/p>\n
Don’t miss… <\/strong> <\/p>\n However, his salary demands are seemingly stopping any move outside of suitors in the Middle East. While at United, De Gea was among the club’s highest earners, receiving a weekly wage of over $450,000.<\/p>\n Such figures would be prohibitive to Betis and Valencia, despite the latter having billionaire Singaporean business magnate Peter Lim as an owner. The former’s fans are their majority owner, with local businessmen among their other notable shareholders.<\/p>\n Therefore, Beckham hopes that a lack of movement will work in Inter Miami’s favor. The club is, of course, no strangers to signing Spanish players on free transfers after signing De Gea’s former international teammates Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets last summer.<\/p>\n
