David De Gea’s £29m move from Manchester United to Real Madrid has collapsed because the necessary paperwork was not submitted in time.
And to think De Gea has been sulking in the United stands all season in a bid to force the move.
No official announcement has yet been made by either club.
As part of the deal to sell De Gea to Real, United were planning to make Keylor Navas move in the opposite direction.
There is no precedent for Spanish clubs being given additional time to conclude transfers as there is in England.
Blame for the failure to complete the deal is already being apportioned.
Get in, Ed Woodward.
