He had reportedly signed a one-year extension on a reduced salary before United U-turned and withdrew the contract offer.

That has left De Gea unemployed but United have asked him not to join another club.

And now the goalkeeper has shared a cryptic tweet after the rest of the United squad turned up for their first day of pre-season.

De Gea posted an emoji of a juggler on social media, sparking a reaction from fans.

Several said their goodbyes to the long-term club servant, who spent 12 years at Old Trafford.

United are targeting a new No1 this summer with Inter Milan’s Andre Onana believed to be top of the wishlist.

But the Italian giants want more than £50million for the shot-stopper, which could prove too much for United.

The Red Devils have also shown interest in Porto keeper Diogo Costa and Feyenoord No1 Justin Bijlow, who is a cheaper alternative to their main targets.

Meanwhile De Gea’s agent is set to meet with Fenerbahce to discuss a free transfer.

SunSport understand De Gea is also target for Cristiano Ronaldo’s Saudi side Al-Nassr.
