Spanish goalkeeper David De Gea has travelled to Manchester for his medical with the Premier League Champions. De Gea, 20, is believed to have agreed personal terms with United ahead of a proposed £20 Million transfer from Atletico Madrid. De Gea is fresh from winning the U-21 European Championships…

Manchester United have made a major step forward in the hunt to replace Edwin Van Der Sar between the posts, as David De Gea underwent a medical at Bridgewater Hospital in the city. Only 6 days prior, Ashley Young walked through the same doors before his successful medical and subsequent switch to Old Trafford. De Gea flew into Manchester on Monday, and is expected to complete his signature on or before Friday, July 1st. 

De Gea helped Spain U-21’s secure the UEFA Underage European Championship on Saturday in Denmark, assisting his nation in a 2-0 win over Switzerland in the Final. The 20-year-old kept a clean sheet, and is regarded by many as Europe’s best young goalkeeper in the current climate. De Gea is expected to replace Real Madrid goalie Iker Casillas in goal for the Spanish senior side within a couple of seasons. 
David De Gea enters Bridgewater Hospital for Red Devils medical on Monday

The young keeper has gained 44 caps for Spain at all International levels – from U-17, U-19, U-20 to U-21 – where he has played 13 times. De Gea has 84 games under his belt with Atletico Madrid, keeping a clean sheet in over ¼ of his appearances. Along with Anders Lindegaard, Ben Amos and Tomasz Kuszczak, David De Gea will be top contender for the no.1 shirt at The Theatre Of Dreams for the upcoming 2010/2011 season.

Sir Alex Ferguson will bring his summer spending spree to almost £60 Million guaranteed that De Gea puts pen-to-paper on a rumoured 5-year contract. With Phil Jones and Ashley Young tying the knot with The Reds for £20 Million each, United continue to spend more than any other club in Europe this summer to date. The exact fee for De Gea is reported to be £18.3 Million, which could rise upwards to £20 Million with bonus payments to Atletico.

I’d always said he was the one we should and would go for, Neuer is good but once he said that he only wants to go out of Germany on holiday, you know he’s a cry baby, oh wait, he is! (proved it on camera in a press conference!). De Gea in the other hand is a mini Edwin, only 20 but what 2 defenders to star behind in Rio and Nemanja. The future is bright.

Sean it’s either the quatar royal family or maybe we will have to take sir alex at his word as he has always said the money from the ronaldo sale is there for him to use on players personally I think the later!!!

I suspect the latter, too, as if it was the Qataris we wouldn’t blink at bringing Sneijder for £35m and blowing the wage structure to do so. The spending may seem extravagant compared to recent previous seasons, but we’re still bargain hunting in relative terms.

Now with arsenal ready to sell fabregas to barca if £35m can be agreed and barca spending budget of £35m, will this mean Sanchez is open to an approach? Me thinks nasri will stay now!

Jones, Young and De Gea may be the 3 signings SAF referred to but still hope we sign a midfield kingpin but maybe SAF has a plan as he is the master tactician . The average age of the team has fallen and we are well placed to continue our dominance.

Want to say how sorry I was to hear of Mike Doyle as well , a legend for City who was a thorn in our side which was a testament to his ability

@ josh Luka Modric is 1/2 to sign for Chelsea and they already made a bid for him and was turned down and Luka Modric said himself he wants to sign for Chelsea . and last january young was 1/2 to sign for united and a bid was turned down but at the end signed for us six months later ;so my guess is we have made a bid for which has being turned down and will ruturn with a new offer soon ; odds go up then when there is facts and then the suspend with in minuted
