Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has responded to Dean Henderson ’s claim that it was “criminal” to hand the Spaniard the No.1 position back by suggesting that he prefers to “focus” on the present.
The two stoppers have been in a fierce battle to start between the sticks at Old Trafford over the past few seasons. It initially looked as though academy graduate Henderson had won the battle during the 2020/21 campaign with former boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer playing him instead of the then out-of-form De Gea.
It did not pan out that way though. Henderson made just three appearances in all last season - something that he has labelled "criminal".
