De Gea in training with Spain ahead of opener against Czech RepublicIker Casillas won’t start in front of the United stopper despite recent allegations
Boss Vicente del Bosque said: “If De Gea is able to play, he will play. If he’s not then we’ll take another decision.
“We have to think about the goalkeeper situation for the whole team. We can’t just think about how the goalkeepers are now but the whole year, the whole season.
“A final decision will be made tomorrow but they’re big guys, they won’t feel the pressure.”
The Man United keeper has the backing of his team-matesRamos is back De Gea and doesn’t want the allegations to affect the side
De Gea has consulted his lawyers about reports in a Spanish newspaper that he had been named in a statement given by a protected witness in a rape case against pornography producer Ignacio Fernandez Allende.
Defender Sergio Ramos said De Gea’s unwanted headlines had come as an unhappy surprise for the squad but he said the team were behind the keeper.
