Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea says he is determined to add the EFL Cup to his list of honours at the club.

The 26-year-old has already won the Premier League, FA Cup and Community Shield but has yet to lift the EFL Cup trophy.

De Gea says he is only thinking of progressing to a final against either Liverpool or Southampton but has his sights set on winning his his first EFL Cup title at the Red Devils.

‘It’s a special game as, if you win, you’re at Wembley and in another final,’ De Gea told the Manchester United website.

‘It is one where we want to be there, of course. We played well at Old Trafford and scored two goals and they didn’t score. That was the most important thing, we are two goals in front, but we know we are going to be in a war in Hull. We’ll need to play good football.

‘I really want to win that competition. I don’t have a League Cup winner’s medal and I am going to be really happy if we win it. We are always hungry. We are Manchester United. We’re always trying to be in the finals at Wembley because we always want to win.’

Manchester United are now set to face Hull City in the EFL Cup semi-final second leg on Thursday.

The match at the KCOM Stadium kicks off at 21:45.
