DAVID DE GEA has been urged to snub Manchester United by pundit Gabby Agbonlahor.
SunSport exclusively revealed that the Red Devils are planning a shock U-turn and are trying to tempt their former No1 back to Old Trafford.

This is because his replacement Andre Onana has changed his mind and now wants to represent Cameroon at the Africa Cup of Nations.
The tournament runs from January 13 to February 11, which means he could miss up to eight games if his side make the final.
Man Utd are therefore ready to launch a bid to bring De Gea back on a short-term deal.
They booted their long-serving goalkeeper out the club after 12 years just a matter of months ago.
In negotiations, De Gea saw his wages drop from £375,000 each week to £200,000 before all offers were then taken off the table despite him being asked not to join another team until Onana signed.
talkSPORT’s Agbonlahor has hit out at United and encouraged De Gea not to return.
He said: “I wouldn’t [rejoin] what they have done to him, the way they had the contract and then took it away after the amount of years he played for Man Utd and what he had done there.
“I wouldn’t – but he is in Manchester at the moment and he’s pictured with some of the players.”
Agbonlahor continued as he slammed the club, ranting: “Shambles.
“Didn’t they think about that before they let Onana go and they didn’t bring in a better No2?”
Fellow pundit Alan Brazil said similar: “Can’t win, don’t to it because he was kicked out.
“He was promised something, why go back when you are not going to play?”
Brazil also suggested that De Gea could be being “greedy” and demanding too much money from other clubs with him still a free agent after his exit.
