Manchester United might wait until 2023 before making David de Gea transfer decision

Manchester United have several issues that need addressing in the transfer window and this means that some areas may have to be deferred until next season. The midfield is the most pressing area of the squad, with two players likely needed to solve the club's issues, while a backup striker option for Cristiano Ronaldo will also be on the agenda.

However, there has been much debate in the fanbase over the future of David de Gea. Though the Spanish shot-stopper was named Player's Player of the season for United, the fans are split about whether he had a 'great' season and also where he will stand under new manager Erik ten Hag.

Ten Hag demands that his keepers are able to play out from the back and have a command of their area, even resorting to picking 38-year-old Remko Pasveer between the sticks this season at Ajax when Andre Onana was deemed unable to perform the task. And this has typically been something De Gea struggles with.
