I'm a Man Utd legend who married a pop star and have career earnings of £126m but now I'm unemployed aged just 32 | The Sun

DAVID DE GEA remains clubless after being released by Manchester United.

The Spain stopper was the club's highest earner after signing a contract worth £375,000-a-week in 2019.


The keeper looked set to extend his stay at United this summer and committed to signing a deal on reduced wages.

But the club ultimately pulled out of a deal as they opted to sign Andre Onana instead.

According to contract website Capology, De Gea earned £126.9million during his time at United.

But the former Spain No1 now finds himself without a club.

The free agent reportedly has interest from PSG, Bayern Munich, the MLS and Saudi Arabia.

He has been training in his native Spain as he aims to keep fit ahead of a move.

He used his time away from the field this summer to get married to Edurne Garcia in June.

Garcia is a Spanish singer, actress and TV presenter.

She started her pop career at the age of seven when she was part of a children music group called Trastos.

She also appeared in a number of Spanish TV shows growing up.

Aged 21, Garcia took part in the fourth season of the casting show Operación Triunfo on TVE and finished in sixth place in 2006.

She signed a record deal with Sony BMG Spain soon after her elimination from the show and released her debut album Edurne in 2006.

Since the beginning of her career, she released seven albums, starred in three movies and won five awards as a singer.

Garcia was Spain's entry at Eurovision in 2015 in Vienna and finished in 21st place, scoring 15 points for Spain.

Cruelly, De Gea and Garcia's wedding coincided with the day that De Gea was released by United after 12 years of service to the club.

The bookies have a Saudi Arabian club as De Gea's most likely next destination.

It's likely that only a Saudi club could match or better De Gea's £375k-a-week contract given the eye watering sums they have offered to players this summer.
