Al-Nassr are reported to be showing interest in De Gea following what <a href="https://tbrfootball.com/exclusive-cristiano-ronaldo-is-encouraging-al-nassr-to-sign-one-of-his-former-man-united-teammates-this-summer/" target="_blank">TBR Football</a> described as a "glowing reference" from <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/player/cristiano-ronaldo/h17s3qts1dz1zqjw19jazzkl" target="_blank">Ronaldo</a> to chiefs at the Saudi Pro League club. It comes as David Ospina is expected to leave ahead of next season.

WHAT HAPPENED?

De Gea is thought to be considering his options after spending a year without a club since leaving <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/team/manchester-united/6eqit8ye8aomdsrrq0hk3v7gh" target="_self">Manchester United</a>. The Spaniard has teased a return to the game in recent weeks by posting training footage of himself on social media. But he was previously reluctant to take the Saudi Arabia plunge, with longstanding interest from clubs in the super wealthy Gulf nation.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Despite leaving United, De Gea has continued to be based in Greater Manchester, having made his home in the city's affluent southern suburbs for more than a decade. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/david-de-gea-vows-i-ll-be-back-as-ex-man-utd-star-spotted-training-at-apparent-non-league-ground/blt2ba018664ff17803#cscb9a124677e5bf11" target="_blank">Much of the training footage he has shared took place at Altrincham FC's ground</a>.

DID YOU KNOW?

Even at the age of 33, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/player/david-de-gea/e00004wkpfc8jawioejmpu1n9" target="_blank">De Gea </a>is by no means considered old for a goalkeeper. But if he wants to avoid his career petering out altogether, the former Spain No.1 must invite offers and make a decision sooner rather than later so that he can be at elite level sharpness by the time 2025-26 begins.

WHAT NEXT FOR DE GEA?
