David de Gea will be out of contract at Old Trafford this summer
\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has secured the Premier League Golden Glove with two games remaining.<\/p>\n

The Spaniard has kept 16 clean sheets this season, conceding 41 goals.<\/p>\n

Liverpool\u2019s Allison is second with 14 clean sheets, but it became impossible for him to catch De Gea when he conceded against Aston Villa.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cThe golden glove is not just about me \u2013 we have been solid this season,\u201d said de Gea, 32, after their\u00a01-0 win over Bournemouth\u00a0on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Newcastle\u2019s Nick Pope and Arsenal\u2019s Aaron Ramsdale both have 13 clean sheets, with Manchester City\u2019s Ederson on 11.<\/p>\n

It is the second time De Gea has won the accolade, last claiming it in 2017-2018.<\/p>\n

And it comes despite the fact de Gea has come under criticism this season for making several costly mistakes, calling his future at the club into question after 12 years at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

A mistake to gift Said Benrahma the winner in a\u00a01-0 loss to West Ham\u00a0earlier this month took his tally of errors that have led to a goal in all competitions this season to four, the joint most of any Premier League player, along with Tottenham\u2019s Hugo Lloris.<\/p>\n

But United boss Erik ten Hag said \u201canyone can make a mistake\u201d and he believes he has a \u201ctop keeper\u201d in the Spaniard, who has made 542 appearances for United.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe defend with 11, that\u2019s why we have so many clean sheets. Of course we have a top keeper who can save great opportunities from the opponent,\u201d Ten Hag said.<\/p>\n

The goalkeeper is out of contract this summer, and in February said he hoped contract talks with the club would \u201cend in a good way\u201d.<\/p>\n

Despite winning the Golden Glove, de Gea\u2019s United have suffered heavy defeats to Liverpool, Manchester City and Brentford, with a goal difference of 11.<\/p>\n

Manchester City boast the accolade of the fewest goals conceded so far on 31, with Newcastle having conceding 32.<\/p>\n
