De Gea’s contract expired on Friday June 30 at midnight but the 32-year-old is enjoying private time with his family in Spain and United will continue face-to-face discussions with the Spaniard in due course.
United have a variety of goalkeeping options for next season, even if talks with De Gea break down, with Dean Henderson returning from his loan at Nottingham Forest and Tom Heaton’s contract extended.

Sky Sports News’ senior reporter Melissa Reddy analyses Manchester United’s summer transfer business as they look to add to their attack
United, and Ten Hag specifically, covet Andre Onana from Inter Milan and their CEO Beppe Marotta admitted they are waiting for a bid from United this week. Inter want around £43m for Onana plus add-ons. United have also made checks on Feyenoord goalkeeper Justin Bijlow having done due diligence on David Raya and Diogo Costa.
De Gea staying could offer a new long-term No 1 time to settle and adjust without overwhelming pressure or allow the club to focus on that area next season and go heavy for a forward.
We’re told all options are on the table and in play, but United are aware they have to box smart and shrewdly given FFP regulations.
