Man United's David De Gea stunned as Louis van Gaal forces him to train with the reserves

David De Gea has been made to train with the reserves

DAVID DE GEA has sensationally been made to train with the reserves as his transfer saga shows no signs of letting up.

 

The Manchester United goalkeeper has been linked with a move to Real Madrid and was left out of the opening game against Tottenham last week.

Louis van Gaal confirmed he would be left out again tonight when United face Villa and admitted the Spanish stopper has told club staff he doesn't want to play.

 

Van Gaal said: "We've talked with him and he was fully agreed with our decision. We have a goalkeeping coach, Frans Hoek, so I'm not doing everything alone.

"Frans had a meeting with David and he asked him, 'Do you want to play?' The answer was no.

"Then I have to take the decision. It is a process. We had been observing him in preparation, and he was not so good, he was not the same David De Gea as before, when he was my best player last season. According to the fans, he was the best player of the last two years."

And, according to the BBC, De Gea is surprised by Van Gaal's stance, wants to play and has been made to train with the reserves.
