Manchester United have moved
for Atletico Madrid goalkeeper
Davide De Gea.
El Mundo Deportivo says United approached Atletico
about opening negotiations for the 19 year-old and were given short
shrift by the Spanish giants.
United were prepared to let De Gea remain at Atletico Madrid for another season, with
Edwin van der Sar having
recently signed a contract extension to keep him at Old Trafford
for another campaign.
In Spain, De Gea is known as 'Van der Gea' due to his
similarities with the United No1.
