DAVID DE GEA admits English clubs value their players more than in his native Spain.
The world-class stopper has been chased by Real Madrid ever since legendary goalkeeper Iker Casillas left the Bernabeu.
Speaking to reporters, he said: "I think that the players who leave Spain are not paid as much attention as those who stay in Spain and people forget about us a little.
"The English culture cares for and loves its players a lot."
De Gea was moments away from joining Madrid in 2015, but the Spanish champions failed to submit paperwork on time.
The Spaniard seems to be settled at Old Trafford and is a key cog in Jose Mourinho's team.

The Galacticos are also interested in promising Athletic Bilbao keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.
De Gea said: "[Kepa] is still very young, he has a long career ahead of him."
"His head is very settled but he must keep growing. When training with him, you realise his level and that he is a great goalkeeper.
"I'm young too, we are both here and, with Pepe [Reina], we always arrive at the national team with the greatest enthusiasm to help the side."
