De Gea to Start For Man United at Huddersfield after Romero Injury — Solskjaer

By Daily Sports on May 4, 2019

David De Gea will start for Manchester United at Huddersfield on Sunday, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed.

De Gea will play after No. 2 keeper Sergio Romero suffered an injury in training, removing a potential selection headache for United manager Solskjaer.

The Spain international has made mistakes in his last five games, including a high-profile error during the 1-1 draw with Chelsea, but Solskjaer’s possible selection dilemma no longer applies after Romero picked up a knee problem.

“He [De Gea] will play,” Solskjaer told a news conference on Friday.

“Sergio was injured [on Thursday] so didn’t train, tweaked his knee, and David has been training well this week.

“David is confident and looking forward to the next two games. He wants to prove how good a goalkeeper he is. He has got all my confidence.”

De Gea is one of a number of senior United players whose futures are uncertain as the season comes to a conclusion.

He will enter the final year of his contract in the summer, and has been linked with a £90 million move to Paris Saint-Germain.

There are also doubts about Juan Mata, Alexis Sanchez, Romelu Lukaku, Matteo Darmian, Marcos Rojo and Eric Bailly, while Ander Herrera and Antonio Valencia are set to leave on free transfers (ESPN)
