David de Gea reportedly set to part ways with Manchester United

<p>Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea appears to be heading towards an exit from the club as he has been left out of their retained list for the upcoming season. </p>

<p>De Gea's current contract is set to expire on June 30, and negotiations for a new deal have been unsuccessful so far. </p>

<p>The 31-year-old has been reluctant to accept a reduction in his £375,000-a-week salary, making his contractual situation appear bleak, according to sources at the club.</p>

<p>While young striker Mateo Mejia and Under 21s player-coach Tom Huddlestone have received fresh contract offers and are included on the retained list, De Gea's omission suggests that his 12-year tenure at Old Trafford may come to an end this summer. </p>

<p>If De Gea departs as a free agent, Manchester United will need to secure a new first-choice goalkeeper, with Tom Heaton and Nathan Bishop currently being the only options.</p>

<p>Having made 545 appearances for United, placing him fifth on the club's all-time list, it increasingly seems that De Gea has played his final game for the Red Devils. </p>

<p>Despite winning the Golden Glove last season, his campaign was marred by notable and costly individual errors. </p>
