Erik ten Hag has sent a clear message to Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea

Something had to give in the goalkeeping department at Manchester United this summer, although you could argue that big decision was at least 12 months overdue.

David de Gea stands firm between the posts as Dean Henderson heads to Nottingham Forest to kickstart his career again. De Gea, 31, has been a mainstay at United for more than a decade now; building on the highs, getting through the lows and surviving the odd damning comment from Roy Keane with microphone in hand.

Last season, he emerged from arguably the most difficult challenge presented to him at United. Ever since he first touched down in the Premier League as a wide-eyed yet supremely talented young goalkeeper, De Gea has been the undisputed number one at Old Trafford.

However, in Henderson, a new contender stood there as if to lay down the gauntlet to a seasoned heavyweight boxing champion.
