At last, Sir Alex Ferguson admitted that he hope that United will completed the signing of David de Gea as the right successor to Van der Sar at Old Trafford.
The fee believed to be in the region of £17m and will makes the 20-year-old De Gea, who is yet to win a cap for Spain, the second most expensive goalkeeper in football history behind Gianluigi Buffon, who swapped Parma for Juventus in a deal worth around £32m in 2001.
” He’s a young goalkeeper, very quick, good composure, presence, and an outstanding replacement for Van der Sar,”
“We were looking for the same type of qualities as Edwin, because the one great quality Edwin always had was his composure and organisational ability. With David De Gea, he is very similar that way.”
He is young but not really lack of experience. He has been part of a provisional 30-man Spain’s World cup winning squad and already played in UEFA Europa League cup final and UEFA Super Cup. He played consistently with Altletico Madrid and should be a better choice than Neuer.
However, the main things that I am worried about him..
1) Either he is ready to withstand the pressure of playing with the biggest club in world or not.
2) Spanish player always dream to play for Real Madrid or Barcelona!
Yeah!
