Manchester United star David De Gea is still waiting to learn when he will receive a new deal
The Old Trafford goalkeeper, 26, has two years left on his present £190,000-a-week deal and his camp had received encouraging early signals during the summer about fresh talks.
United believe Real Madrid have finally ended their interest in the Spanish shot stopper, which may have slowed down the negotiations.
A number of first-team players at Old Trafford are reaching the latter end of their contracts and the United money men know De Gea will represent a major financial outlay for them.
The keeper has established himself as one of the best in the world but he is still lagging behind the likes of team-mates Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku in the United salary stakes, with the duo each earning £275,000 per week.
De Gea joined Manchester United from Atletico Madrid in 2011.
Since then the Spaniard has made 283 appearances for the Red Devils and kept a total of 106 clean sheets.
De Gea and Bayern Munich's Manuel Neuer are considered by many to be the world's best goalkeepers.
