United to lose De Gea to PSG … if they fail to match £350k-a-week offer
PARIS Saint-Germain will meet David De Gea’s wage demands of £350,000 a week.
And the goalkeeper will quit Manchester United this summer if they do not match the offer.
De Gea’s contract talks at Old Trafford are deadlocked and PSG are prepared to make the Spanish No 1 the best-paid stopper in the world.
The French champions will pile the pressure on their rivals with a £60million bid.
PSG, who were knocked out of the Champions League by United earlier this month, want a long-term successor to Gianluigi Buffon.
De Gea, 28, has only one year left on his United deal and could leave for nothing at the end of next season.
United are desperate to keep hold of their star, who joined from Atletico Madrid for £17.8m in 2011.
And the Red Devils will attempt further discussions with De Gea’s representatives before the end of this campaign in a bid to thrash out a deal.
SunSport revealed in December the keeper was willing to do a U-turn on his plans to leave and was edging towards a new contract.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s arrival has turned United’s season around and De Gea is now optimistic about the club’s ambitions.
United also risk losing Ander Herrera to PSG on a free transfer this summer after they offered him a lucrative three-year deal.
The Spanish midfielder, 29, is expected to talk to Solskjaer this week about his future — but the United boss is braced for bad news.
