Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea is shocked by the death of former Atletico Madrid teammate Cleber Santana.

Cleber was among the 76 victims of the Chapecoense air crash disaster.

De Gea tweeted a heartfelt tribute to Chapecoense midfielder Cleber, a 35-year-old who played alongside the United goalkeeper while at Atletico Madrid, saying that it was hard to express the emotions he was experiencing.

The Spanish No1 tweeted saying: "Deeply affected by Medellin's plane crash. I shared locker with Cleber Santana and it's difficult to reveal how I feel. A huge hug."
