David De Gea Set to Sign for Genoa After a Year Without a Club.
David De Gea is on the verge of joining Genoa this summer, according to The Athletic. The Spanish goalkeeper has been without a club since leaving Manchester United in the summer of 2023.
De Gea, 33, departed the Red Devils after his contract expired and he failed to agree fresh terms. Now, he is set to sign for the Serie A side as a free agent. Genoa, who finished 11th in the Italian top flight last season following their promotion from Serie B in the 2022/23 season, appear poised to secure De Gea’s services.
Reports indicate that De Gea had been attracting interest from clubs in Italy, the United States, and Saudi Arabia. There was also speculation that an unnamed English club had expressed interest in signing the experienced goalkeeper.
This move marks a new chapter in De Gea’s illustrious career, which saw him become a stalwart at Manchester United, where he won numerous titles and accolades during his time at Old Trafford. Genoa will be hoping his presence can provide a significant boost to their squad as they aim for a successful campaign in Serie A.
