Press: De Gea flew to Madrid to complete formalities with "Real" © JumpStory

Rumors have spread in the English media that Louis van Gaal has granted a three-day break to the main "Manchester United" goalkeeper David De Gea.

The "Daily Express" claims that the 24-year-old footballer flew to the capital of Spain, where he should meet with representatives of Madrid's "Real" and negotiate the terms of a personal contract.

The Spanish national team player has been linked with a departure from Manchester throughout the season, with the current UEFA Champions League winners showing interest in him.

De Gea himself doesn't talk much about his future, but it seems that the Spaniard's career should take him to "Real."

"Real" could pay up to 40 million euros for the goalkeeper.
