Goalkeeper David De Gea rejected short-term deal with Nottingham Forest

Goalkeeper David De Gea

David De Gea rejected a transfer offer from Nottingham Forest in January, choosing not to return to the Premier League after being released by Manchester United last summer.

It has been reported that David De Gea declined a transfer offer to join Nottingham Forest in January.

The seasoned goalkeeper, who has been without a club since parting ways with Manchester United last summer, has been the subject of various transfer speculations.

Despite rumors linking De Gea to the Saudi Pro League in the previous month, it has now come to light that he turned down an opportunity to make a return to the Premier League.

According to insights from The Athletic, Nottingham Forest actively sought to bolster their goalkeeper position during the January transfer window.

Not content with the existing options of Matt Turner and Odysseas Vlachodimos, Forest made approaches for seven different goalkeepers.

In their pursuit of De Gea, the club argued that there was significant value for the player in securing regular playing time for the remainder of the season.

However, the 33-year-old goalkeeper chose to decline the short-term offer presented by Nottingham Forest, opting for a different path in his professional career.
