deadline day last month but the Manchester United
goalkeeper has moved on.
Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea feels he has
matured and grown following his failed switch to Real Madrid.
De Gea was all set for a Madrid homecoming, with Keylor Navas
to move in the opposite direction, but the transfer papers were
not lodged on time as the Spanish window shut last month.
The Spain international has since signed a new four-year deal at
United and reclaimed his position in the starting XI, appearing in
seven consecutive fixtures in all competitions, having been cast
aside by manager Louis van Gaal at the start of the season.
"I am a guy who likes to let the bad things and difficult times
behind," De Gea was quoted as telling Canal Plus.
"I spent a lot of tough times and I know what it is. We must
move forward, working equally and always strong.
"It's a learning process that gives football hard moments but
that make you mature and grow. These are things that you learn
in the world of football. You have to keep working and try to
improve in every training session."
De Gea - on international duty as Spain prepare to host
Luxembourg in Euro 2016 qualifying on Friday - added:
"Everyone who works for Manchester respected me, I tried to
help and I am very grateful to them."
