Reports in Italy are suggesting that David de Gea is set to leave Manchester United in the coming days.
De Gea’s future at Old Trafford has been the topic of conversation for months. The Spaniard’s period of paternity leave appeared to complicate matters with hitherto understudy, Deam Henderson churning out predominantly solid displays in his absence.
De Gea has since returned to England but was overlooked in United’s last game, a come from behind 2-1 Premier League victory over Brighton and Hove Albion with Henderson again given the nod to start. The Spaniard has been at Old Trafford since 2011 but United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has started Henderson for seven games in a row.
De Gea’s representatives are already sounding out potential buyers and he is set to leave Manchester United this off-season, according to the Daily Mail. The 30-year-old is contracted with the Red Devils although no transfer fee has been mentioned yet.
The report claims Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and Atletico Madrid are potentially interested clubs.
