David De Gea's girlfriend, Edurne Garcia, has reportedly let slip that the Manchester United man is destined to move to Madrid.

The popstar, who represented Spain at Eurovision last year, has previously got herself in hot water with fans of the Old Trafford club when she agreed that Manchester was "uglier than the back of a fridge."

And her latest comments - reported by El Mundo as being off-microphone after an interview - suggest that, whatever happens, De Gea is set to move to Real Madrid.

"Now, when he is in Madrid," she is alleged to have said, "everything will be much easier."
