The girlfriend of David de Gea has dealt a blow to Manchester United's hopes of keeping him by describing his adopted city as 'not very nice'.
Singer Edurne Garcia, Spain's Eurovision Song Contest entrant, made the comments on light entertainment show El Hormiguero.
Host Pablo Motos asked her: 'I've been told Manchester is uglier than the back of a fridge.'
And rather than leap to the defence of the city where her boyfriend plies his trade, the 29-year-old replied: 'It's not very nice, that's for sure.
You have to hunt out specific places, the nice places. 'But even then Spain is nicer. The reason I like it is because David's there. With him being there, everything looks wonderful.'
De Gea, 24, sees his contract expire at Old Trafford at the end of next season.
