Manchester United fans have called for the club to re-sign David de Gea after they shared a birthday message for the goalkeeper on social media.
On Tuesday, the Red Devils’ official account on X, formerly known as Twitter, took a moment to post a birthday message for De Gea – who was released by United last season.
Since departing Old Trafford, however, the Spaniard has failed to attract a new club and remains a free agent – despite winning the Premier League Golden Glove in 2022-23.
There’s been rumours circulating that De Gea could land a sensational return to Old Trafford, after he was spotted out at lunch with his former team-mates.
And now, after United’s birthday message, a number of supporters have called on the club to ‘bring him home’.

Taking to X on Tuesday, United shared a graphic that read ‘Happy Birthday’ and had a picture of De Gea in the centre.
In response, a number of United fans quickly fired back, with one saying: ‘Bring him Home . We want David back say we want David back!!!!!’.
‘Miss Dave so much’, another said with heart emojis accompanying the message.
One supporter boldly claimed: ‘David de Gea, Sir Alex Ferguson’s greatest legacy’.
Another fan referenced United’s current keeper Andre Onana, as they said: ‘Better than Andre Onana’.
Onana has endured difficulties of his own since joining Manchester United from Inter Milan during the summer window in a deal worth £43million.
The Cameroonian has been the receiving end of mounting criticism after numerous mistakes from the opening couple months of his United career.

De Gea, meanwhile, sent fans into frenzy a cryptic message in an apparent reference to his future on social media last month.
He tweeted a chin rubbing emoji that suggests he is thinking about his future which came just days after he met with former team-mates for a meal.
Club captain Bruno Fernandes took to social media to share his ‘coffee and friends’ date with the goalkeeper and a handful of Red Devils stars.
The 32-year-old is a legend at the club but previously refused to take the drastic pay cut on his £375,000-a-week wages after months of lengthy negotiations, however he has remained close with former colleagues.
