United Expected To Land David De Gea 14/04/2011
Despite Sir Alex Ferguson and David De Gea denying Manchester United and Atletico Madrid have a deal in-place to see the 20-year-old Spanish goalkeeper move to Old Trafford, it is widely thought the pair have an arrangement. According to many media circles within Spain, De Gea will move to United this summer… With Edwin Van Der Sar adamant he will retire at the end of the season, The Reds have stepped-up efforts in their search for a suitable replacement. Chief goalkeeping coach Eric Steele and European scouts have been on high alert over the past few months, with many names blurted in the press. Ajax keeper Maaerten Stekelenburg, Schalke ’04’s Manuel Neuer and Lyon’s Hugo Lloris are amongst the top transfer targets, it has been said. However, it’s Atletico Madrid goalie David De Gea that has appeared most likely to move to the club. With Anders Lindegaard currently sidelined following a knee operation and Tomasz Kuszczak growing frustrated, a 5-year contract worth nearly £20 Million to the La Liga side is now reported to have been agreed. Despite the seller’s and De Gea’s agent confirming an arrangement is in-place, United and the player himself have denied that development. “On Italian television, I am supposed to be signing two players from Italy tonight, so I can place that story along with those,” Sir Alex told reporters following United’s 2-1 win over Chelsea at Old Trafford in the Champions League. “There is always speculation about who we are going to sign. So many people throw names at me. I can’t answer it.” “There is nothing, it is all lies,” De Gea told Spanish press. “I know nothing about offers from any team, whether it is other clubs or a renewal from Atletico. I have given my all to this team since I have been here, and that will continue today and tomorrow, I will always fight for this team I do not think the fans have any reason to be against me, we have the best fans in the world and they will support me until my final day, for that I am sure.” Download United Latest From The App Store !
