Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has remained coy on his future when quizzed at en event in Spain over the weekend.
The 24-year-old shot stopper has been strongly linked with Real Madrid with Los Blancos reportedly lining up a 25 million euro deal to take the keeper back to the Spanish capital. Real are on the lookout for a new shot stopper with Iker Casillas entering the autumn of his career, while Keylor Navas could depart in search of regular first team football.
De Gea, a former Atletico de Madrid man, is already seen as the successor to Casillas at international level, and could soon replace the Spain legend at club level too.
The Reds’ Player of the Year was at an event over the weekend having been given an honorary title by the Castilla La Mancha region of his country.
When asked by reporters about his future, de Gea avoided the topic, saying he was proud to be recognised as an adopted son of Castilla La Mancha and wanted to enjoy his holidays.
“We’ll see what happens with my future… I’m on vacation now and very happy with this recognition,” he was quoted as saying by Spanish sports daily AS.
