Erik ten Hag is refusing to guarantee that David de Gea will be Manchester United 's first-choice goalkeeper next season as talks over the Spaniard's future continue.
De Gea, 32, has been locked in contract negotiations with United for months but has been heavily scrutinised by fans and pundits alike after a string of high-profile errors this term. And that scrutiny is only set to increase after the veteran shot-stopper was at fault for the only goal of the game as United fell to a 1-0 loss at West Ham on Sunday night.
Despite his latest howler, De Gea is believed to be close to agreeing terms on a fresh contract that will keep him at Old Trafford beyond the end of the season - however, it remains to be seen if he will still be Manchester United's No.1 next term.
