In approximately two months, it will mark a year since David de Gea has been inactive in any soccer capacity. The goalkeeper’s contract with Manchester United expired in the summer of 2023, and he is still without a club. However, there might be a change in this situation as reports from the Spanish outlet Estadio Deportivo suggest that Real Betis is interested in signing De Gea in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Real Betis has been long-time admirers of De Gea but previous attempts to secure a deal failed due to the goalkeeper’s high salary demands. With Betis aiming to qualify for European competitions and facing a goalkeeping dilemma with Claudio Bravo set to leave, they are looking to reignite their interest in De Gea.
While De Gea’s reputation in the football world has taken a hit, a move to Betis could provide him with the opportunity to compete at a high level. The likes of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid already have established goalkeepers, making Betis a potential destination for De Gea.
It is a significant turnaround for a player who was the Premier League Golden Glove winner in the 2022/23 season. If De Gea does make the move to Betis, it could be a fresh start for the experienced goalkeeper in La Liga.
