Manchester United’s treatment of David De Gea
David De Gea has been without a club since leaving Manchester United last summer.
Despite his significant impact at Old Trafford, where he made over 500 appearances and won multiple trophies, United chose not to renew his contract, opting instead for André Onana as their new first-choice goalkeeper.
The decision marked a bittersweet end to De Gea’s nearly 12-year tenure with the club, leaving both the player and many supporters disappointed.
The move to Fiorentina represents a new chapter for De Gea, offering him the opportunity to continue his storied career in Serie A.
