David De Gea is determined to leave Manchester United for Real Madrid this summer, and the Spaniard has asked Jorge Mendes to pave a way out, reports Spanish outlet Don Balon.
The Manchester United No. 1 has made his mind up to not have a repeat of 2015, when his move to Real Madrid collapsed on deadline day, and finalize the transfer well in advance this time around. As a result, the goalkeeper has decided to use his super-agent Jorge Mendes to get his wish.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez, who has been a long-term admirer of De Gea, is ready to launch a £50 million bid to land his favorite shot-stopper.
