David De Gea is a United player – for the next four months at least – whether he likes it or not and it seems that Louis van Gaal is finally ready to recognise that too.
One of the world’s best goalkeepers has been taken in from the Old Trafford cold and included in Manchester United’s Champions League squad.
De Gea’s proposed move to Real Madrid broke down on Monday night – if you hadn’t heard – and the Spaniard, who hasn’t featured for the side so far this season, is about to see his playing career resurrected with his inclusion in van Gaal’s European squad.
Victor Valdes, meanwhile, may continue to make himself snug in that directors’ box.
#mufc CL squad is out and David de Gea is in it. Victor Valdes isn't.

And it’s not just good news for David De Gea. The club’s Deadline Day signing joins him on the list, as well as a couple of seemingly perennial hot prospects.
Martial is also in there, as are Nick Powell, Jesse Lingard, Andreas Pereira and Guillermo Varela. #mufc
