Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has offered his backing to David De Gea, saying the Spain international goalkeeper is a player Manchester United can rely on.
De Gea returned to the United side for the 3-2 loss to RB Leipzig in the Champions League on Tuesday, following a short spell out with a knee problem, and he did not cover himself in glory as the Red Devils crashed out of the competition.
He was partly to blame along with Harry Maguire for Justin Kluivert’s crucial third goal, which put Leipzig 3-0 up with 21 minutes left to play and United were unable to complete the comeback.
