1 Min Read

Louis van Gaal expects David De Gea to remain at Manchester United beyond his current contract.

De Gea whom has been in fantastic form this season  has 18 month left on his current contract and the United manager insists nothing should be thought into his decision to sign Victor Valdes.

Van Gaal said “I think there is no problem for (De Gea) to sign,” he said. “When you are a (regular) player, then probably you are the best, and then the manager is very happy that a player that is fixed in the line-up will stay.

On Valdes he warned he faces a huge challenge to get in front of his younger compatriot, “Nobody is happy to be No 2 and he has to have ambition to beat David De Gea – but it shall be very hard for him.

” Van Gaal also praised the professionalism of this first choice saying; “David de Gea has developed himself in the six months that I’ve been here very much. I’m very pleased with his development.”
