David de Gea will sign a new contract at Manchester United if he receives an offer that matches his demands, according to reports.
The Spaniard has proven himself to be one of the best goalkeepers in world football over several seasons despite United’s recent struggles in the Premier League.
And the Daily Mail claims that De Gea wants his new wage packet to reflect that with a significant improvement on his current £200,000-a-week.

The man of the match for United in their 1-0 victory over Tottenham ‘would expect’ at least £300,000-a-week plus bonuses.
The Red Devils only recently triggered his a one-year extension in his contract that will take him through until the summer of 2020 at Old Trafford.
The report adds that De Gea is ‘keen to thrash out fresh terms’ with United, who have been in talks with the 28-year-old without resolution for some time.
“We want him to stay,” Jesse Lingard said after their latest win under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. “He’s one of the best keepers in the world, if not the best.”
