David de Gea announces birth of baby girl Yanay after being told not to rush back from personal leave in Spain... with Dean Henderson given six games to impress Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as Manchester United's No 1

David de Gea welcomed his first child Yanay on Thursday after being told by Manchester United not to rush back from personal leave in Spain this month.

Sportsmail revealed on Thursday that De Gea travelled back to his home country to be with his pop star partner Edurne as she prepared to give birth.

De Gea wants to return to Old Trafford to reclaim his spot as first-choice goalkeeper but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer believes it is best if the 30-year-old stays away from the club until after the international break.
