Shocking news: MU sells De Gea, gets Morata + 22 million pounds
Jose Mourinho is ready to allow De Gea to join Real, if the Royal team agrees to transfer striker Alvaro Morata for an additional 22 million pounds.
After Ibrahimovic suffered a serious knee injury, coach Mourinho really hoped to have Morata to fill the gap in the Red Devils' attack.
The 24-year-old striker himself also wants to leave the Bernabeu, after a season of sitting on the bench.

De Gea and Morata could swap places this summer. |
The Red Devils value De Gea at around £66m. So, if they get Morata, they still want Real to pay an additional £22m.
Alvaro Morata only returned to Madrid last summer. However, he has only played 14 games in La Liga, mostly as a substitute.
Zidane still favors Benzema as a striker, so Morata hasn't had much room to play. At the age where he wants to show himself the most, it's understandable that this player is insistent on leaving.
As for Real, they have been courting De Gea for 2 years and now want to restart the deal to be assured of his position in goal.
However, MU still holds the upper hand and the Spanish goalkeeper himself will not put pressure on the transfer.
Therefore, the Royal team needs to meet the requirements set by MU before the reigning Europa League champion considers the option of exchanging players.
