Man Utd target De Gea not leaving Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid goalkeeper David De Gea will not be leaving the club anytime soon.

The promising 20-year old gloveman has been heavily linked with Manchester United in recent weeks but has assured Atletico fans that he will not be leaving Vicente Calderon.

"The supporters can relax, I'm staying here. I'm very relaxed and there's no reason to move," De Gea told the club's official website.

"I'm very happy here, I've spent my whole life here and this is a great club that deserves everything.

"Atletico Madrid have given me everything. It's a compliment that a club as great as Manchester United are interested in you, but Atletico are close to my heart and I want to stay here."
