David De Gea is expected to start his preseason with Manchester United on Monday.

United are prepared to let De Gea play out the final season of his contract unless Real Madrid include Sergio Ramos as a makeweight in a transfer.

While United have made one bid for the 29-year-old defender, Real have yet to make their interest in De Gea official. An informal price of €18 million (£12.7 million) was presented by the Spanish club but this was not countenanced.

Ramos has been informed by Real Madrid that they received a formal bid from United valued at £28.5 million and he has told the club he wants to leave this summer.
