Real Madrid ready to pull out of de Gea move
David de Gea looked a pretty glum figure on the opening day of the season as he warmed his rear-end on the comfy seats at Old Trafford alongside Victor Valdes.
Jorge Mendes, who is De Gea’s agent, is reportedly in talks with the club and it is claimed that he expects the Red Devils to agree to this offer, rather than risk losing the Spanish worldwide on a free transfer next summer.
But former Old Trafford no1 Schmeichel believes Tottenham’s Hugo Lloris is the ideal keeper to takeover from De Gea.
“It’s sad that it’s dragged into the season”.
Manchester United are determined to keep hold of goalkeeper David de Gea from the clutches of Real Madrid, at least for one more year.
Despite the current situation, the Dutchman says that de Gea has a future with the club. Manchester United sent him to PSG after making huge additions recently.
“Van Gaal wants players that can adapt to his manner of seeing the game, this is the reason they are trying to get him“.
James, who spent seven seasons at Anfield, added that De Gea’s potential move to Real Madrid would have a big impact on United’s title prospects.
“It was a very hard game because it was two teams who wanted to press, so every player was on the ball for a small amount of time”.
Van Gaal substituted the Ajax goalkeeper for Tim Krul in the dying minutes of extra-time during Holland’s win over Costa Rica at the World Cup last year because he felt the Newcastle man was better at saving penalties.
And the United manager hasn’t ruled out switching the 21-year-old to his more familiar role on the left. Ashley Young is a star, his contribution was immerse and if fit might be a defining factor in this season’s premier league showdown.
Van Gaal chose not to pick De Gea for the United’s Premier League opener against Tottenham because of his concerns about the Real Madrid target’s state of mind.
Romero made three important late saves while Italian defender Matteo Darmian, French midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin and Dutch striker Memphis Depay also made useful first starts. Sergio Romero can handle the goalkeeping position and make it his won permanently.
