Real Madrid target De Gea set to hand in Man Utd transfer request

David De Gea will reportedly lodge a transfer request with Manchester United.


According to The Sun, the Spanish goalkeeper is determined to land a summer move to Real Madrid and will ask his current club to allow him to do so.

The report suggests that De Gea expects to be confirmed as a Real player within the next two weeks but if that does not eventuate, he will hand in the transfer request to United officials.

Real are looking to make an initial offer of around £20million but multiple reports suggest the Spanish giants will have to spend much more if they want the 24-year old at the Santiago Bernabeu.
