Man Utd push to secure De Gea and Carrick to new deals

Manchester United are pushing to secure David de Gea and Michael Carrick to new terms.

The Daily Mail says De Gea has matured into one of the best goalkeepers in Europe since joining United in the summer of 2011 but the Spaniard will be out of contract in 18 months time.

That has alerted Real Madrid but a United source insisted they are 'completely relaxed' over De Gea's situation, even though negotiations with his representatives have yet to begin in earnest.

The club also have an option to extend Carrick's contract by a further 12 months and seem likely to do so following the veteran midfielder's return from ankle surgery.
