De Gea was omitted from the United squad to face Tottenham on the opening day of the Premier League by boss Louis van Gaal, who suggested the Spain international was not focused enough to feature amid a prolonged stand-off with Real Madrid over a summer transfer.
But this has not prevented Van Gaal from including his star goalkeeper in his plans for the two-legged tussle with the Belgian giants - even though appearing in a Champions League match for United would make De Gea ineligible for the competition at Madrid this season.
