Widespread reports in the British media, however, have said that United are not certain to extend the Spanish keeper's contract, which expires at the end of the current campaign. "In the background we have our strategies for how to deal with it. It is clear already and I have already emphasised it several times, I am really happy with David. He is a great goalkeeper.
Marcus Rashford headed the winner in the first half at Old Trafford on Sunday, continuing his return to form this term as he passed 100 goals for his club in all competitions.
