David de Gea "really looking forward" to Spain debut

De Gea "really looking forward" to Spain debut

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has revealed his excitement at the possibility of making his Spain debut in Friday's international friendly against Bolivia.

The highly-rated stopper, who had a fine season for United last term, is expected to make his first La Roja appearance in this week's pre-World Cup encounter.

"I'm really looking forward to making my debut, although I know I'm up against other great goalkeepers. I'm really enjoying this opportunity," Inside Spanish Football quotes De Gea as saying.

De Gea, Iker Casillas and Pepe Reina will travel to Brazil as Spain's three goalkeepers this summer after a knee injury ruled Barcelona's Victor Valdes out of the competition.
