David de Gea has announced he is leaving Manchester United this summer and has said that “now, it’s the right time to undertake a new challenge” in his career.
The goalkeeper failed to agree terms on a new contract to extend his stay at Old Trafford and will leave the club 12 years after joining from Atletico Madrid in 2011.

De Gea was close to signing a new deal only for talks to collapse at the end of season. Sources have told ESPN that United are in negotiations with Inter Milan for the transfer of Cameroon goalkeeper Andre Onana.
“I just wanted to send this farewell message to all Manchester United supporters,” De Gea wrote on social media on Saturday.
