David De Gea, the 19 year-old stopper who has been linked with Manchester United for several months may become a Red Devil if United agree to pay a massive £25million to Atletico Madrid.
David De Gea is a teenage sensation and may be an ideal replacement for the aging Edwin Van der Sar. However, Atletico Madrid is asking for a massive fee of £25million, which may cause the deal to fail. The recent Europa League Champions want to cash on their young star and Chelsea too are following his progress.
The 19 year-old stopper has been linked with Manchester United for several months. With veteran Edwin Van der Sar on the verge of retirement, Sir Alex Ferguson is looking for a long term replacement and De Gea has been earmarked to fill the role.
At Atletico, De Gea is known as 'Van der Gea' due to his lanky physique and agility, similar to the Dutch keeper himself.
Manchester United has been linked with many keepers so far. They include CSKA Moscow's Igor Akinfeev, Manuel Neuer from Schalke and Lyon's Hugo Lloris.
David De Gea is an awesome prospect. His concentration, positioning, aerial ability, communication and decision making are great for his age. This lanky keeper is extremely agile and has the reflexes of a cat. He also has a very good one-on-one ability and knows how to spread his body and until when to stand on his feet.
De Gea is known as a humble young guy, who works extremely hard in training. This quality may impress Sir Alex Ferguson to bring this Spanish teenager to Old Trafford. But, he surely will not pay £25million to Atletico Madrid. What do you think, will we be able to sign De Gea?
