"Yeah, I think so. I went back to train with Manchester United when I was 33, 34, and David was there and that was the year, I think, that he left. After that season, he left. I mean, the guy was still phenomenal. The guy was still shot-stopping"
Manchester United allowed David de Gea to depart as a free agent in 2023 after 12 years and 545 appearances, during which he earned four Player of the Year awards and established himself as a model of consistency. The club replaced him with Andre Onana, whose tenure proved unsuccessful, leading to his loan at Trabzonspor with expectations of permanent departure. Former striker Giuseppe Rossi, who trained alongside De Gea at Old Trafford, believes United made a substantial mistake, noting De Gea remained phenomenal at the time of his exit. The club has since found stability with 23-year-old Belgian goalkeeper Senne Lammens, who appears positioned as the long-term successor United had been seeking.
