Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal reveals that he has identified a host of goalkeepers capable of replacing Real Madrid target David de Gea if he leaves.

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal has intimated that he already has a replacement in mind for goalkeeper David de Gea if he leaves for Real Madrid this summer.

Speculation is rife that the 24-year-old will join the Blancos, with reports on Friday suggesting that the Spaniard has already agreed personal terms in Madrid.

Van Gaal admits that he wants De Gea - who was nominated for PFA Player of the Year - to stay, but says that he has contingency plans in place should a departure materialise.

"We want him to sign but he has to want to stay here at Manchester United," the Dutchman told reporters. "I don't know why he has not made the decision.

"We know who already shall be the next goalkeeper. We have a list of goalkeepers who can replace him because we have to be organised also, not only for that position but every position.

"We want him to stay so hopefully he shall sign."

Reports earlier this week had suggested that Van Gaal was lining up a move for Stoke City stopper Asmir Begovic, whose contract expires next summer.
