According to reports, when David De Gea first signed with Manchester United in 2011, he received an average annual salary of £3.64 million ($5.7 million). He continued earning this figure for four years until he signed a new contract with the club.

In 2015, De Gea signed a new four-year contract with Manchester, significantly increasing his salary. Under the new deal, De Gea reportedly earned £200,000/week ($300,000/week), which equated to £10.4 million annually ($15.6 million).

In 2019, he signed another four-year extension with Man Utd. Several figures for his weekly salary were reported at the time, but it’s believed he began earning between £350,000 and £375,000/week ($525,000 – $562,500/week). This likely resulted in an annual wage of £19.5 million ($29.2 million).

Based on the information above, David De Gea has earned approximately £134.2 million ($201.3 million) in salary during his professional soccer career. He also typically earns between $3 million and $5 million annually from endorsement income.

Endorsements

When Forbes listed David De Gea as the highest-paid goalkeeper and tenth-highest-paid player in the world for 2020, his off-pitch earnings were estimated at $3 million per year. It’s presumed that most of this figure, or at least a sizeable chunk, was derived from his partnership with Adidas. De Gea has been signed to the brand for the majority of his career. However, outside of footwear and apparel, the goalie also secured brand endorsements with EA Sports and Pepsi. In 2024, he signed on as a brand ambassador for the sports betting platform BETJILI.

Estimated Net Worth Annually

David de Gea’s net worth will increase substantially yearly due to his contract salary and endorsement deals. Goalkeepers mature more slowly than infield players, so, at 31, De Gea has many more years to ply his trade between the goalposts.

Here’s a breakdown of David de Gea’s annual net worth:

• 2015 – $40 million
• 2016 – $42 million
• 2017 – $45 million
• 2018 – $48 million
• 2019 – $50 million
• 2020 – $65 million
• 2021 – $70 million
• 2022 – $72 Million

Real Estate

With astute money managers helping him invest wisely, he has also acquired property worldwide, including a Manchester mansion worth £2.5 million ($3 million).

Summary

David de Gea is an excellent example of starting from the bottom and working your way up. He found his passion early in life and stopped at nothing to achieve the very best that he could. Continuing to work to be his best, David has made an impact on fans and football players all around the world.

With many more years of professional play, barring injury, his net worth is set to skyrocket over the coming years. Becoming the best goalkeeper in the world and setting the record for the most money spent on recruiting a goalkeeper is hard to maintain, but he does. David is shooting for the stars, nothing less.
