The £12m signing on fee is pure fiction. Utterly implausible. Even football clubs dont give away money for literally no reason. He would sign for Real for nothing, so throwing £12m down a pit aint gonna happen.

Huh?

Scenario 1:
DDG signs new contract with Utd, Real have to pay over £30m next summer.

Scenario 2:
DDG doesn't sign new contract with Utd, Real pay DDG £12m signing on fee and keep £18m in their pocket.

How is that a football club giving away money for no reason?

Scenario 3: it's bks.

[m3sye]

DDG expected to start this Sat?

Come on Cie, surely you can see that it's within Real's interest to offer him some incentive to not sign a new contract with Utd?!

[Cie]

I heard he's going to start, save 3 penalties and keep our cleansheet for a 7-0 win, then sign a new contract in front of the Stretford End after he headbutts Skrtel into the ground.

We might find out at 4pm when it's our press conference.

I don't doubt they have. £12m? To Real Madrid that's over €16m, come on...

[jammy_basturd]

Pocket change to Real. Plus, from their POV I'm sure it would be worth that to completely fk over Utd, especially with what has happened with his transfer so far!

Yep. The £12m story came out (with no source) BEFORE the transfer deadline. Do we really think Real was telling reporters what it would pay De Gea to sign with them if, contrary to their plan, he did not sign by the end of the window WHICH LITERALLY EVERYONE THOUGHT HE WOULD. It's made up bks.

[E63M6]

I think he'll sign it. Maybe another Gerrard scenario where he signs a new contract and stays for the next 10 years, after a move away never happened. Ah well, we can all wish that at least...

Completely fk over United.

Jammy, we are happy to keep him for another season. The club has said that. Why would they be fking us over if he signs for them next summer as is widely expected? Jesus titty christ.

[GTO-3R]

He's re signed

Beer and coke on me.

[E63M6]

He will go eventually but not without Madrid paying a record fee for a goalkeeper.

[ORD]

He will have been told he can go in the summer.

Can he give us back the 3 points his little hissy fit cost us against Swansea?

possibly but then why not sign a 2 or 1 year contract? 4 seems excessive for a player who wants to leave.

he may eventually go ,but he's got time onhis side.

De Gea - best signing we could have made, a motivated Dave is worth points to us, points that may prove invaluable at season end.

If I look back far enough I'll find my post where I predicted he'd stay. ITK.

Sorry fellow reds for my lack of posting recently, time poor work heavy at the moment. ATB.

Coz the deal will almost certainly have gone like this.

MU: "Sign a long contract so Real has to pay us loads for you, but we will let you go whenever you want from this summer on"

DG: "Nah"

MU: "Here's a few million squids"

DG: "OK"
