David de Gea has received support from three Manchester United<\/a> players after his latest update on social media.<\/p>\n

The Spaniard left Old Trafford<\/a> at the end of his contract in 2023 after over a decade in Manchester. De Gea made a club record 545 appearances for a goalkeeper in United colours, winning five major trophies since joining in 2011.<\/p>\n

But after a difficult 2022\/23 season in which he made several high-profile errors, the United icon departed<\/a>, with the then Reds boss Erik ten Hag<\/a> choosing to sign Andre Onana from Inter Milan as his replacement. The Spanish shot-stopper endured a frustrating period after leaving United, having failed to find a new club until he joined Italian Serie A side Fiorentina last summer.<\/p>\n

De Gea<\/a> enjoyed a positive first season in Italy with several strong performances for the Serie A side, particularly in Europe, where they reached the Europa Conference League semi-finals – losing out to Antony’s Real Betis over two legs.<\/p>\n

And the 34-year-old is now enjoying a well-deserved holiday with his wife, the Spanish singer Edurne. De Gea has posted several pictures on his Instagram<\/a>, alongside the caption: “Simple moments, forever memories,” in Spanish.<\/p>\n

His post has received several likes from United players – past and present. Bruno Fernandes, Diogo Dalot and Lisandro Martinez have been among the current stars to show their support, as well as ex-Reds players Robin van Persie and Juan Mata.<\/p>\n

De Gea is set for an emotional return to Old Trafford this summer when United face Fiorentina in a pre-season friendly.<\/p>\n

The Reds begin their pre-season against Leeds in Stockholm on July 19 before flying to the United States for games against West Ham, Bournemouth, and Everton.<\/p>\n

Ruben Amorim\u2019s side will then return to M16 to play Fiorentina on August 9 before the Premier League<\/a> begins again on August 16. That match against Fiorentina will see De Gea return to his old stomping ground, where he is sure to get a warm reception from United supporters.<\/p>\n
