United moved to replace De Gea by bringing in Andre Onana for £48 million ($59m) from Inter, but the Cameroon international has endured an error-strewn start to life in England. That has led to speculation that De Gea could be drafted back in on a short-term basis.
DID YOU KNOW?
De Gea has done little to quash that gossip as he pays regular visits to Manchester. He has already met up with United captain Bruno Fernandes since hitting free agency, while a second reunion with fellow countryman Reguilon has now taken place – with the duo pairing up for a Padel session.

There has been no official word out of Old Trafford that United are considering putting terms to De Gea, but he remains without a club and the gossip will continue for as long as the Red Devils struggle for consistency in Premier League and Champions League competition.
