Addressing the Fiorentina faithful, De Gea shared an emotional message that many have interpreted as a potential farewell. He said: "A challenging season for all of us, but one in which we demonstrated what this club represents: the heart, the fight, and the values that define us. As captain of this incredible club, I feel the responsibility. I am grateful for every single moment of this year, from everyone at the club to my teammates, the club and the staff. Now is the time to rest and recover."
While the message was full of gratitude, it stopped short of confirming his presence at the club for the next season. This ambiguity has left the door wide open for Juventus to make their move.
