Manchester United want David De Gea to remain at the club |
MANCHESTER UNITED remain insistent in their refusal to sell David De Gea to Real Madrid.
The La Liga giants want to bring De Gea back home as a long-term replacement for Iker Casillas, who has joined Porto.
United have tried to include Real defender Sergio Ramos in a swap deal for the Spanish goalkeeper, but have seen their efforts rebuffed.

Ramos now looks set to sign a new contract at the Bernabeu, while De Gea could leave for free next summer when his Old Trafford deal expires.
But News News Blog Sport understands United have not changed their stance on De Gea and want him to stay.

Red Devils sources maintain the 24-year-old will only be sold in this transfer window if Real offer a world-record £35m or include Ramos, 29.
And United legend Bryan Robson has urged the former Atletico Madrid shot-stopper to stay for one more season before leaving - like Cristiano Ronaldo did.
"You have to be a professional about it," Robson said. "It's like the Ronaldo situation. The club weren't prepared to release him for another year and he had to get his head round it.
"Ronaldo went about it in a professional way, had a great season then got his dream move. If that's what David has to do, then that's what he has to do."
