Romano provides an update on future of David de Gea’s at Old Trafford
The 30-year-old United goalkeeper only started two of United’s last 12 league games last term as he regularly played second fiddle to Dean Henderson during this period.
This led to speculation connecting him with a move away, with a report maintaining last month that a permanent departure was unlikely but that he may leave Old Trafford on loan this summer.
And now the transfer Guru Romano has ostensibly put any discussion of de Gea going out on loan to bed in the latest episode of The Here We Go Podcast.
The transfer expert has exposed that the 45-cap international will be staying at United, admitting that de Gea’s salary has stopped rival clubs making a move for him.
Talking about de Gea, Romano said:
“He’s staying at Manchester United. I always see many questions but his salary is the problem. His salary is a huge one and no one in the market is looking for top goalkeepers like David de Gea.”

De Gea is currently the highest earner at United, as he receives £375,000-a-week. This puts him amply clear of Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford.
The Red Devils made the signing of Jadon Sancho for £73m last month but even he will not be earning as much as de Gea – the winger is set to take home £350,000-per-week.
Bearing this in mind, it is not a major shock that other sides have been reluctant to pursue the shot-stopper.
De Gea was used sparingly at the back end of last term, and some may expect Henderson to get the nod again this year given that he is six years younger than his equal so could be seen as a better long-term option.
However, Henderson is currently self-isolating and is at risk of missing the start of the term, meaning that de Gea could begin the campaign in goal.
This could allow him to impress, and if he starts completely he could leave Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with no choice but to stick with him for the foreseeable future, even when Henderson is fit to return.
