David De Gea has told Manchester United he doesn’t want to play for them anymore
According to the Dutchman, the Spaniard was asked if he would like to face Aston Villa on Friday but he told goalkeeping coach, Frans Hoek ‘no’.
According to Goal.com Van Gaal told reporters on Thursday: “We talked with him [De Gea] and he fully agreed with our decision.”
“I have one assistant coach and another assistant coach so we speak about that kind of thing together. We have a goalkeeping coach, Frans Hoek, and I’m not doing everything alone.
He continued: “Frans Hoek… he has a meeting with David de Gea and he asked him: ‘Do you want to play?’ [De Gea said “No”]. Then I have to take the decision. It is a process.
“We had been observing him in preparation, he was not so good, he was not the same David de Gea as before. He was my best player last season. According to the fans, he was the best of the last two years.”
De Gea has already informed his club that wants to join Madrid this summer and the 24-year-old missed Saturday’s 1-0 win over Tottenham. Summer signing Sergio Romero replaced De Gea in goal against Tottenhan.
Manchester have already sold Angel Di Maria, Rafael Da Silva, Luis Nani and Robin Van Persie this summer.
