180 000 pounds should have been noisy Sun the salary is – 180,000 pounds per week, the equivalent of 213,403.50 euros (as of half past twelve Thursday afternoon). The English tabloid had learned the amazingly precise information about the fee that Manchester United Frankfurt goalkeeper Kevin Trapp is said to have offered as part of a four-year contract from a reliable source – namely from the publication of a German medium, which in turn referred to its own information.
If United had actually offered that much money, Trapp might have become really weak. But the real, much less opulent offer, recorded in a draft contract, made the 32-year-old goalkeeper think for a while. Ultimately, connectedness and loyalty won out.
On Monday, his management informed him about the interest of the prominent English club, on Thursday Trapp announced via Instagram that he would rather stay with Eintracht Frankfurt. “I experienced unforgettable things here, and we made history together,” he justified his decision and illustrated his commitment with the emoji of a flying eagle. So Attila, the Eintracht eagle, has them Red Devils, the Red Devils, expelled. Polite as he is, Trapp had already informed Manchester United about his no later on Wednesday.
By midday, the audience had already expressed 100,000 approvals for his staying
The series of misinformation and half-truths that circulated on the subject did not end there. It was said in England that Manchester had refrained from the transfer because Eintracht had made disproportionate transfer demands. There was no exchange of numbers between the clubs. For this, Trapp should have signaled his consent first – which he did not do. “Manchester United is a global club and I hope everyone can understand that I’m considering an offer like that,” he told the crowd, who had pledged 100,000 favors to stay by lunchtime.
The riot machine Sun still had a story: Manchester United had been rebuffed again, the newspaper reported maliciously and referred to the previous cancellations of Darwin Nunez (now Liverpool FC), Jurrien Timber (stayed at Ajax Amsterdam) and Frenkie de Jong (resisted with all his might, being sold to United by FC Barcelona).
Kevin Trapp would have met his Spanish colleague David de Gea, 31, in Manchester. He would not have come as the new goalkeeper, but as a challenger. He still knows the danger that arises from such a constellation from his time at Paris Saint-Germain (2015 – 2018). Sitting on the bench at United while Eintracht are in the Champions League could have hurt his World Cup ambitions. In Frankfurt, on the other hand, in addition to the regular place, he also has an excellent rank in the ancestral gallery. Trainer Oliver Glasner explained Trapp in the MR indispensable, “not only because of his performance, but also because of his standing”. Talks about extending his contract, which expires in 2024, are expected to start soon, including a salary increase.
