While De Gea earned 20 million euros at Man United, this would be his new salary

It seems that David de Gea is really close to sign a deal that would send him to his new team, but the keeper would need to take a big salary decrease from what he earned at Manchester United.

After the transfer window ended and David de Gea did not signed with any team, it seems that the spanish keeper was set to miss this season with any team, but now it has been reported that the former red devils is now in talks to arrive to a new team and to a new league that would offer him a lower salary.

At some point in the transfer window it has believed that David de Gea would be tempted to accept one of the offers that he had from teams in Saudi Arabia, but the fact is that the player was keen on going back to Spain or staying in Europe, which means that despite them offering a really good salary for him, he was not ready to move to that country.

And now it has been reported that David de Gea is already in talks to sign with Real Betis in La Liga, which means that his plan to go back to Spain could be completed and he could also be a part of a team before the winter break actually starts, because there are several sources that believe that the deal is details away from being completed.

At Manchester United it was a fact that David de Gea was the highest paid player in the team with a salary of 20 million euros per year, and now “The Athletic” has reported the the current salary that he would earn at his new team could only go up to 3 million euros per year, but it seems that the plan to go back to Spain was enough to convince him.
