That’s embarrassing from the club if true . As much as I love reducing DDG’s wages, backing out of signed contracts is too much..

I absolutely agree. Opinions of De Gea aside, he has been nothing but professional. He deserves to be treated with a bit of respect at least

Same. I love De Gea. He’s always kept his mouth shut during his transfer saga and now this contract extension issue. Just seems like a good personality. I hope the club does him well

If my memory serves me right, we majorly screwed up Sergio Romero as well during his final stretch at united.

Full Tweet:

David de Gea signed a new contract extension only for #MUFC to back out of the agreed proposal.

Initial offer would have seen drastic reduction to De Gea’s £375kpw salary. New proposal is even lower & yet to be signed

Aouch.... How do you even do that from a legal standpoint? I'd be furious if I was DDG
