Man Utd goalkeeper cannot be caught with 16 clean sheets to claim the award for the second time.
De Gea Wins 2022/23 Golden Glove Award. Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea has won the 2022/23 Castrol Golden Glove outright.
De Gea was guaranteed sole ownership of this season’s award for the most clean sheets when his rival, Alisson, fell out of contention by conceding for Liverpool at home to Aston Villa.
That means the Brazilian had 14 clean sheets with one match to play, while De Gea had 16. But the Spaniard added to his tally in Man Utd’s 1-0 win at AFC Bournemouth.
It is the second time the Man Utd goalkeeper has claimed the award, winning in 2017/18 with 18 clean sheets.
That is a total De Gea can still beat this season, with two more matches remaining for Man Utd, at home to Chelsea on Thursday and Fulham next Sunday.
