Man Utd Star Set For International Recall

Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea is set to make his first team return for his national team in their Euro 2016 qualifier against Macedonia later tonight in Skopje. De Gea last played for Spain in a friendly against Costa Rica in June.

De Gea, whose much talked-about move to Real Madrid fell through on deadline day, hasn’t made a single appearance for Manchester United this season, and his lack of match practice meant he wasn’t a shoe in for a starting berth against Slovakia on Saturday.

But Spain coach Vicente Del Bosque has opened up on De Gea’s current situation, and says the goalkeeper is in condition to play.
