David De Gea Manchester United goalkeeper, who is on the radar of French club PSG and Italian giants Juventus, wants to reap heavily from his rising profile in the transfer market.

Manchester United are negotiating with the player for a new contract which will keep him at Old Trafford and make him the highest-paid goalkeeper ever in world football.

De Gea’s representatives are pricing Manchester United out of retaining the services of the Spain goalkeeper whose current contract will elapse at the end of 2019/2020 season, ESPN reports.

In 2011, De Gea moved to Old Trafford from Spanish side Atletico Madrid.

United have offered De Gea £90 million for the next five years which will see him earn £350,000 a week.

This pay package will see him become the third highest-paid player at the club  behind Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez.

However, De Gea’s representatives and Manchester United have not agreed a deal as the goalkeeper wants more than the £90 million offered.
