Manchester United have growing doubts over David de Gea's No.1 role
There are growing doubts at Manchester United over David de Gea's position as the club's No.1 beyond this season.
Although manager Erik ten Hag publicly backed De Gea after his howler in the 1-0 defeat at West Ham, sources say some have reservations over extending De Gea's contract.
