David de Gea and the 33 highest paid goalkeepers in the Premier League. Here's their weekly salaries - in pictures

David de Gea is getting a somewhat bad press at the moment, compounded by his errors against Chelsea on Sunday that contributed to the Blues securing a 3-1 win and a place in the FA Cup final. Indeed one goal conceded – Chelsea's second – scored by Mason Mount, was, in his manager's words, a shot the Manchester United goalkeeper should save "100 times out of 100" . While there is no doubting he is still one of the best goalkeepers in the world, De Gea is at a point in his career where errors no longer feel like an anomaly. For years De Gea set the bar by which all other goalkeeping standards were judged. However, since a Cristiano Ronaldo shot scrambled through is hands at the 2018 World Cup, the Spaniard has failed to reach those heady heights on a consistent basis for either club or country. According to figures published by spotrac.com , De Gea is the highest paid player in the Premier League , which, by default, means he is also the most well numerated goalkeeper in England.
