Fiorentina have confirmed the signing of experienced goalkeeper David de Gea on a one-year contract. The 33-year-old Spaniard has been without a club since departing Manchester United at the conclusion of the 2022/23 Premier League season.
De Gea’s arrival in Florence marks the end of a year-long absence from professional football for the former Spain international. Renowned for his shot-stopping abilities and consistency during his lengthy tenure at Old Trafford, the goalkeeper will be expected to bolster Fiorentina’s defensive line.
