Fiorentina’s official X account shared a set of pictures showing De Gea and Ferguson reuniting. The pair sat down together and appeared to engage in something of a trip down memory lane ahead of a pre-season friendly between the club and United this weekend.

De Gea was signed by Ferguson in 2011 and played 80 times under the legendary Scotsman. De Gea went on to spend over a decade at the club, making 545 appearances in goal for the club, and could fairly be termed an iconic figure himself.

Under Ferguson’s management, the Spaniard became a champion, although that was his only trophy during his reign. Afterwards, he won the FA Cup in 2016, the Carabao Cup in 2017 and 2023 and the in 2017.

De Gea is preparing for the season ahead. After their clash with United at Old Trafford, Fiorentina face a play-off against an opponent that is yet to be determined.
