Genoa have decided to push for a deal with David de Gea after the former Manchester United goalkeeper agreed to join the club, reports detail.
The 33-year-old Spanish shot stopper has not played a single minute of football since leaving the Red Devils in July 2023, deciding to spend a year on the sidelines as a free agent after a 12-year spell with the Premier League giants.
Genoa are looking around for a new goalkeeper following the sale of Josep Martinze to Inter and have been in contact with De Gea, who is ready to return to football after a year out of action. The 33-year-old has already given his green light for the move to the Ligurian capital.
