Real Madrid accuse Man United of holding up David De Gea deal

“Real Madrid has done everything necessary, and at all times, to implement these two transfers,” said Madrid in a lengthy 10-point statement published on their website on Tuesday afternoon.

Real Madrid have defended their conduct over the failed bid to sign David de Gea and accused Manchester United of holding up the deal.

United and Madrid had agreed a deal worth £29million for the sale of De Gea to the Bernabeu, with Keylor Navas heading in the other direction.
