For four years, 24-year-old David de Gea, who has been guarding the gates of "Manchester United", is reportedly returning to his native Madrid at the end of the season, to guard the gates of the "Real" club instead of "Atletico". Both the Spanish and English press unanimously report that D. de Gea has already agreed on the personal details of the contract with the "Royal" club, and now it remains for the clubs to agree on the goalkeeper's transfer. However, one of the most reliable English media outlets, "Sky Sports", denies the rumors about the agreed contract, but reports that "Man Utd" coach Louis van Gaal has already mentioned looking for a replacement for the Spaniard. "We have a list of goalkeepers who could replace David. Such lists exist for all positions - we must be organized and prepared. However, we want him to stay and hope to sign a new contract", - said L. van Gaal. At the beginning of this season, "Manchester United" already offered the goalkeeper to extend the contract, but so far the negotiations are stuck. Currently, the second goalkeeper of the Manchester club is Victor Valdes, but even after D. de Gea's departure, the former "Barcelona" goalkeeper will not become the main goalkeeper. Various rumors link "Chelsea" goalkeeper Petr Cech, "Tottenham" goalkeeper Hugo Lloris, and "Stoke" goalkeeper Asmir Begovic to "Man Utd". D. de Gea arrived at "Manchester United" in 2011 for a transfer fee of 20 million euros - a record for a goalkeeper in England. The Spanish player has already played 174 matches in the ranks of the "Red Devils", keeping the gates clean in 60 matches and receiving only one yellow card. This season, in the "Premier" League, the Spanish goalkeeper guarded the team's gates in all 36 matches, keeping them dry 10 times.
