Despite their win over Man Utd last weekend, Newcastle paid a heavy price when goalkeeper Nick Pope suffered a serious injury. The player will have to undergo shoulder surgery and will be out of action for five months.

Newcastle still have two goalkeepers in Martin Dubravka and Loris Karius but both are unreliable options. Therefore, the North East English team wants to find a new goalkeeper as soon as possible.
According to British media, Newcastle are considering two options: De Gea and Aaron Ramsdale (Arsenal). Ramsdale has lost his place at Arsenal to David Raya and is likely to leave. However, Newcastle will have to pay a certain fee to recruit the English goalkeeper.
De Gea is a free agent after leaving Man Utd this summer. The Spanish goalkeeper has not yet found a new destination.
In recent weeks, the British press has been abuzz with reports that De Gea could return to Man Utd amid Andre Onana’s numerous mistakes. In addition, the Cameroonian goalkeeper is also likely to leave the Red Devils for a month to return to the national team to participate in CAN 2024.

However, this possibility is unlikely to happen because Man Utd and De Gea quickly broke up this past summer. According to ESPN, De Gea is ready to return to Newcastle. This is an ambitious team and has the potential to rise to the top in the coming years.
De Gea did not take long to adapt to the Premier League, having played for Man Utd for 12 years. His talent has been confirmed as he has always been a reliable stopper in the Red Devils' goal.
From now until the winter transfer window, Newcastle will be forced to use the reluctant replacement Martin Dubravka, but in the long run, they really need De Gea's services.
