According to The Sun, David de Gea expects to stay at Manchester United next season and believes he will be the first-choice goalkeeper.
The Spaniard had a mixed season with the Red Devils in 2020/21, sharing playing time with Dean Henderson.
For the majority of the season, De Gea was the starter, but when the latter went on parental leave, Henderson was given the opportunity to shine.
Henderson was favored in goal for league games between March and May, but De Gea was chosen ahead of him for the Europa League final.
According to reports, De Gea is confident in his ability to continue with the Red Devils and believes he will be the starting goalkeeper next season.
When Tom Heaton's contract with Aston Villa expires at the end of the month, the Red Devils are expected to recruit him on a free transfer.
With Ole Gunnar Solskjaer inclined to selling either De Gea or Henderson this summer, he may become the club's second-choice goalkeeper.
De Gea is worth £60 million, based on his current weekly salary of £375,000. Any club is unlikely to consider meeting the cash package.
Paris Saint-Germain have been linked with the Spaniard in the past, but Gianluigi Donnarumma's free move is now their top priority.
As a result, Henderson appears to be the more likely candidate to be shown the door, with the club's management concerned about his demeanor.
Tottenham Hotspur, United's Premier League opponents, have been connected with the United graduate as they look for a long-term replacement for Hugo Lloris.
