Ander Herrera wants David De Gea to snub Real Madrid and stay at Manchester United beyond the summer.

The goalkeeper has been linked with a move to the La Liga giants, who were denied signing him on deadline day in 2015 by a fax machine.

De Gea has stayed quiet on the subject, but Herrera has admitted he does not know where his club and international teammate's future lies.

However, the midfielder hopes the 'phenomenon' stopper is playing alongside him at Old Trafford next term.

"I wish I could play with him for a long time, for me he's the best," Herrera told Radio Marca.

"Never before has a goalkeeper at Manchester United been voted as the best player by the team and the fans, he's managed it three years in a row.

"He's a phenomenon and has a great gift in his reflexes, I want him to continue as he can be a United legend if he wants to.

"His move to Madrid did not go through and he adapted very well to that situation, playing out of his skin. That says a lot about him."
