David de Gea announced his departure from Manchester United on Saturday, stating “it’s the right time to embark on a new challenge.”

The Spanish custodian, who earned the Premier League Golden Glove award for most clean sheets last season, was chastised in the closing weeks of the season for a number of high-profile gaffes.

His contract with United expired at the end of June, and despite talks throughout the season, no new deal was reached.
