De Gea and his agent have played a blinder in using Real to get a new contract. Seems odd that if you believe the stories that the rags cocked up his move he would then sign a contract with them. Maybe it was Real who was at fault and De Gea has protected his future by signing for them. If there isn't a release clause then we know he ain't going anywhere because Perez has stated won't be dealing with the scum again.
 
De Gea has been told he won't get selected for the Euro's if he doesn't play.

United tell De Gea he won't play unless he signs a new contract.

De Gea agrees as long as the release clause is an amount that Real are happy to part with next summer.

De Gea buggers off to Real as soon as summer window opens.

Was going to post exactly the same thing, only United have probably pushed up the buyout slightly. I'd assume £36m which is €50m.

A contract extension also insures himself, should he suffer any major injuries this year.

Why would you assume his buyout is high? De Gea was to leave for absolutely nothing, he had all the power in the negotiations. I'd be surprised if it's even as high as Real were offering before.
 
Dangerous game would Madrid be willing to pay that, and he would miss out on a large signing on fee if he signed.
His best option would be to do nothing and see who blinks first in the January window ?

Anyone think that this may have something to do with the reported £8 million he is getting in backdated wages, not to sure how it works for Madrid but DeGea leaves at the end of the season and foregoes his loyalty payment as he has already had it paid which allows the scummy rag fuckers to accept a lower bid from Madrid.

Don't blame the guy at all for signing the contract, for all he knows he could have broken his arm in training next week and had his career ended. He now has 5 years guaranteed at £200k a week. Not bad work if you can get it.

Because De Gea is benefitting from a contract which allows him to play for Spain at the Euro's and a contract that insures him should he suffer any major injuries. Plus Madrid would stump up the cash for him now his contract isn't running down any time soon.

On the other hand you may be right, it may be lower and United have just insured they get some cash for him.
 
The rags have stumbled onto a good result here even if he does go in the summer. He is a good player and a definite asset to their side. He was the difference between CL and no CL last season and could well be again.

And his witch of a girlfriend/wife who called Manchester to death,she's gonna have to like it or lump it now I guess for a while longer,the slag
 
Good for them. They still play shite football and he's not going to change that.

Plus, of course, he's never kept a clean sheet against us. Kun in particular seems to enjoy scoring against him.
 
Lovely pay day for the lad before moving for a set fee next summer. It'll be interesting to see what the release clause is, but I'm sure the rag BS machine will try and convince the unwashed masses that he's just had a sudden change of heart and wants to play for "the greatest club in the world" for 5 more years. Then change their story next summer when they sell him for £20m


Is exactly what has happened and is going to happen.
 
To e honest, I was afraid of this after his transfer felt apart. It still doesn't have to mean too much and he might be goner in the summer but would like if they continued to be angry on each other.

I don't see any reason De Gea would sign this deal with a high release clause. He didn't need to sign the new contract in order to play for them this season. Real aren't going to want to pay more for him, he doesn't want to get stuck at United. The only reason to sign a deal at all is to get a big chunk of money.

United will be paying him through the nose for this season, to get any fee at all when he leaves next year, but also to save face after looking like an incompetent laughing stock in the window. They'll use their PR machine to try and act like they've pulled a blinder all year, before letting him sneak out of the club next summer for a moderate fee. They are the ones who benefit from this deal happening, so he is the one who will have the terms of the contract hugely in his favour.

I'd be amazed if Mendes hadn't already agreed the fee with Real for next season before setting the clause in this contract and I'd be even more surprised if a large chunk of that fee doesn't go straight into his pocket. Being paid to make deals happen is Mendes's business
 
De gea has signed a 5 year contract

Good news

Don't want him playing for one of our rivals like Real Madrid

Better for us he stays in a team like yoonited that poses no threat whatsoever

He may even help to take points off our tital rivals like Palace and Leicester
 


Look who's bitter now...


Well that's one way to stop us hammering them every week at youth level. I remember the days when we took our ball home and refused to play them because they won a few games against us. Oh , hang on.. actually we just all got pissed and laughed at ourselves too for a while. A while being just over three decades - half a decade of serious local competition and the red side is imploding!

No women's team, no coherent youth policy, no vision. Not sending out a good message are they, particularly when the blue half is talking about building a sporting complex to rival anything seen worldwide, chasing titles on every level and investing in the future relentlessly.

Seriously though, can they really go crying that all the best youngsters seem to want to go to the team with the best facilities? Even their ex-players send their sons to us, soon maybe their daughters also at the rate women's footy is taking off. That surely shows that any loyalty they have is overruleed by knowing what is best for their children.

United have sleepwalked into troubles largely after resting on their laurels following their successes of the 90s, whilst their fans were shouting about being the best club in the world, they forgot to cement their position with any kind of meaningful infrastructure and planning. This can be kind of summed up with their decision to buy Van Perise - forget the future, GPC wants to go out on a bang! Where was the investment off the back of all that prize money, all those shirt sales worldwide? I'll tell you where, in the Glazer's black pockets. Either that or they are as creative with their incomes as they are with stadium attendances. So they can hardly come crying now when someone is talking advantage of their lack of strategy and foresight.
 
It's a safety net for De Gea surely. if the Madrid moves goes tits up he's got a guaranteed £40 million plus contract to ease the pain and options to move if there's a built in release clause in his contract.
