  WHAT HAPPENED?

  De Gea, once a cornerstone for Manchester United between the sticks, has been without a club since his contract expired last summer with the Red Devils. Despite his hiatus from professional football, De Gea has not given up on his career and has been frequently posting training videos which show him in top form and ready for a potential return to the pitch.

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  One of the primary hurdles in De Gea's search for a new club has been his wage demands. At Manchester United, he earned approximately £375,000 per week, a figure that has reportedly deterred several potential suitors. Despite this, he has been linked with various clubs, both in Europe and beyond.

  Among the interested parties is Al-Nassr. According to reports, Cristiano Ronaldo, his former teammate at Old Trafford, has given a "glowing reference" to the club's chiefs. This endorsement could pave the way for De Gea to join the Saudi club, especially with current goalkeeper David Ospina expected to depart ahead of the next season. However, the Spaniard has previously shown reluctance to move to Saudi Arabia, despite continued interest from clubs in the region.
