David De Gea is one of Manchester United’s oldest players.
The Spanish international has been the Red Devils’ number one since joining from Atlético Madrid back in 2011.
One of the few remaining players at the club who was part of legendary former manager Sir Alex Ferguson’s title-winning team, De Gea, who is now just two appearances away from making his 500th for the club, will certainly be remembered as a true great Old Trafford. .
However, despite the fact that he is almost 32 years old and one of the most experienced players in the Premier League, De Gea is likely to have several years left playing at a high level.

Currently with just one year remaining on his contract, there is now some uncertainty as to whether or not this season in Manchester will be the 31-year-old’s last.
United have the option to extend their number one’s contract for another year, but whether they will exercise that right remains unknown, but doing his part to convince his employers that they should, De Gea recently broke his silence.
“New contract? Of course I would like to be here for more years, so we will see what happens in the future,” De Gea told BT Sport, quoted by Fabrizio Romano.
“I am very, very happy here at Man United.”
