Real Madrid president Florentino to slap in £50M De Gea bid to Man Utd

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is ready to make a final effort to sign Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea in LA.

The Sun says Real are ready to unsettle De Gea with a £50million bid for the Manchester United keeper.

The move is sure to increase the bad blood between the clubs, who are currently training at the same UCLA base here in Los Angeles.

The rivals have been squabbling over who has the best facilities and hotels. United have made it clear the Spaniard is not for sale.

Real failed with a deadline-day bid in August 2015 due to a mix-up with the paperwork.

De Gea, 26, then signed a new five-year deal at Old Trafford but still hopes to return home.

United face Real in the ICC Trophy a week on Sunday in San Jose.
