Schmeichel urges De Gea to make decision over Manchester United future

Peter Schmeichel has urged David de Gea to make a decision over his Manchester United future before the start of the new Premier League season.

The Spain international has been tipped to replace Iker Casillas at Real Madrid and Rafa Benitez’s side’s acquisition of Kiko Casilla has done little to dampen the speculation.

At the beginning of July that United have given up hope of keeping the goalkeeper, who could leave the club for nothing when his contract expires next summer. This week, the Red Devils completed the signing of Sergio Romero, a move manager Louis van Gaal admits prepares the club for De Gea’s exit.

United legend Schmeichel understands the attraction of a move to Madrid but implored De Gea to bring a close to the saga sooner rather than later.

“I tell you what I’d urge him to do, I urge him to make a decision because either he goes or he stays,” Schmeichel.

“If he stays, we’re happy, if he goes, we have to move on. We cannot get dragged into the next month and the next month, we’ve got to deal with this situation now.
