Real Madrid president Florentino has €100M for De Gea; faces intense deadline

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is set for an intense end of season over his goalkeeper situation.

Diario Gol says Perez has put €100m cash aside to tempt Manchester United into selling David de Gea - and wants the deal done before the World Cup.

However, any agreement will depend on moving Keylor Navas out of the club first - a key demand from De Gea.

Complicating the situation is Real's Champions League push. Perez does not want to unsettle Keylor before the final, so will wait until the season is closed before kicking off negotiations over a sale for the Costa Rica keeper.

De Gea has been adamant in his communication with Perez that unless Keylor is sold, he is happy to remain at Old Trafford.
