5 reasons why David De Gea to Real Madrid shouldn’t happen

#4 Higher priced

His market value is on the higher end

Manchester United would so absolutely everything to keep their prized asset in the team. Added to that, their strenuous relationship with the Blancos means that they would rather sell the player elsewhere than the Madrid outfit.

All of this would lead to only one thing: Man United increasing their price tag over the goalkeeper.

As of now, the former Atletico Madrid goalkeeper is one of the most expensive shot-stoppers in the world. Indeed, his current market value, according to Transfermarkt, is €40 million—which is quite a lot in itself.

Now when it comes to United’s valuation of the goalkeeper, it would certainly be much higher. And when it comes to selling to the Galacticos, keeping in mind the crazy state of the market, it would not be surprising if the Red Devils don’t budge for anything less than 9 figures for him.
