Man Utd legend David de Gea to announce new team soon

Tic, tac. David de Gea posted an hourglass on his social media on Saturday. Proof that his return to the pitch is closer than ever after being out of action for the 2023-24 campaign.

In recent months, the Spanish goalkeeper has been training with Altrincham FC in England's Fifth Division. Specific goalkeeping work to keep in shape with the team that shares facilities with Manchester United's reserves.

Precisely, the OId Trafford outfit was his last professional appearance in 2022-23. His last game was the FA Cup final, which he lost 2-1 to Manchester City at Wembley on 3rd June 2023.

David de Gea made 545 official appearances for the Red Devils since arriving in England back in 2011. 13 years on, the Atletico Madrid academy player is now adjusting his gloves in the hope of finding a new team.

However, his future is an unknown quantity. The goalkeeper turned down Nottingham Forest last season. His unsuccessful return to the Premier League may be a turnaround, or he may be packing his bags to compete away from Europe. We will have to wait and see.
