Ex-Man Utd goalkeeper David de Gea, 33, ‘lined up for free transfer to La Liga giants’ after a year unemployed

MANCHESTER UNITED hero David de Gea is being targeted by Real Betis ahead of the summer transfer window after a whole YEAR without a club.

De Gea, 33, left United last June when his contract ran out after 12 years at Old Trafford, during which time he won every domestic honour available.

However, the Spanish outfit has other potential candidates to fill in between the sticks besides De Gea.

And one of them is Barcelona goalkeeper Inaki Pena, who could become available amid his club’s financial woes.

De Gea amassed a total of 545 appearances at United where he picked up 190 clean sheets and conceded 590 goals.

The Spaniard won the Premier League Golden Glove last season after registering the most clean sheets in the English top flight.
