“I have a deep love for Manchester United—so much that I’d consider coming back, even after the way things ended,” former goalkeeper David De Gea admitted. “But a return isn’t possible unless one particular player is sold, as he was the key reason behind my departure.”

David De Gea is reportedly open to making a return to Manchester United, but only if the club parts ways with current goalkeeper André Onana.

Sources suggest De Gea still holds frustrations over how his 2023 exit was handled and views Onana’s arrival as central to that departure.

With new manager Ruben Amorim exploring changes between the posts, De Gea’s comeback is being considered—but it hinges on United offloading Onana, who has come under fire for inconsistent displays since joining from Inter Milan.

This development has sparked debate among fans and pundits, raising questions about team dynamics and the club’s strategy heading into the next transfer window.
