Recently, the British media have disclosed that Manchester United's star goalkeeper Dikia has reached a preliminary agreement with the club on a contract extension at a reduced salary, and the news is expected to be officially announced soon. However, the 32-year-old Spanish international has made a number of mistakes in recent matches, leaving manager Tannhäuser's confidence in him to be tested. Even if Dikia succeeds in extending his contract, United will not rule out the possibility of bringing in a new goalkeeper this summer.
Dickia's current weekly salary is a whopping £375,000 (about HK$3.71 million) and, according to inside sources, will be drastically cut by more than half to £175,000 (about HK$1.73 million) after the contract extension, but the new contract includes a bonus clause, which will be paid out based on his performance, so Dickia could still earn a substantial amount of money if he performs well.
Due to Dikia's recent mistakes, the team in the Europa League 8 stop, the last Premier League game against Westham, he even because of the "butter hand" error led to the team to 0-1 loss, the current Premier League competition for the fourth situation is tense. Therefore, in the contract renewal negotiations, Dikia does not have much bargaining space, can only accept a pay cut.
