David de Gea's wait for a new club goes on! Ex-Man Utd goalkeeper's transfer to Genoa collapses due to his salary demands

Serie A

According to <a href="https://www.skysports.com/football/live-blog/12691/13025492/man-utd-transfer-news-rumours-and-gossip-live-updates-and-latest-on-deals-signings-loans-and-contracts" target="_blank">Sky Sports</a>, De Gea will not be moving to the Serie A side for the time being due to his 'unrealistic salary expectations'. The report adds the Italian team will pursue other targets, as the 33-year-old's wait for a new team stretches to more than a year.

He may have to consider lowering his wage demands to play for a team again.
