Former Manchester United captains Gary Neville and Roy Keane have agreed this summer would be the right time to let David de Gea leave the club.
The Spanish goalkeeper has been at Old Trafford since 2011 when he was signed by Sir Alex Ferguson. This year, De Gea won the Premier League's Golden Glove for the most clean sheets.
Despite this, some United fans have called into question De Gea's performances. His struggles playing out from the back have been a particular criticism and have been costly on occasion too.

"If David De Gea is in goal next year, that won’t help close the gap on Manchester City," he said. "You wouldn’t keep him as number two because he’s been number one for years - if he’s not going to be number one, then you move him on.
I think he makes too many mistakes." Keane added: "We don’t know what goes on in the background of clubs, but it’s what you bring in – you have to bring in better.
