David de Gea: "I've to return to Manchester for pre-season" [Video]

David de Gea has told Spanish television channel Cuatro that he is returning to Manchester United for pre-season training.

“Real Madrid? I have to return to Manchester for pre-season,” he said. That was the short and sweet answer for De Gea, who refused to answer any other questions surrounding Real Madrid’s interest in him.

De Gea did say that he was “calm” regarding this summer’s soap opera surrounding his future. The goalkeeper will travel to England today or tomorrow and will meet up with Louis van Gaal. The Dutch coach has not hidden his displeasure at all the talk surrounding the goalkeeper and he is set to meet up with De Gea to discuss his future.
