David De Gea’s stunning girlfriend has rubbished the Man United’s goalkeeper’s adopted city
Singer Edurne Garcia, 29, agreed Manchester was “uglier than the back of a fridge” during a Spanish TV interview on Wednesday night.
And she admitted the only reason she sees it through rose-tinted glasses is because her boyfriend of nearly five years lives and plays there.
Edurne, who jets to Manchester regularly to see shotstopper De Gea, risked the wrath of its half a million inhabitants by slating it on a show where she was promoting her Eurovision song.
She has been picked to perform for Spain at the cheesy contest on May 23 with a song called Amanecer - Dawn in English.
Pablo Motos, host of evening light entertainment show El Hormiguero, quizzed her about her trips to Manchester before asking her: “I’ve been told Manchester is uglier than the back of a fridge.”
She replied: “It’s not very nice, that’s for sure. You have to hunt out specific places, the nicer places.
“But even then Spain is nicer. The reason I like it is because David’s there. With him being there, everything looks wonderful.”
Edurne’s gaffe led to speculation she will put pressure on her boyfriend to quit Manchester United when his contract is up at the end of next season.
He was recently linked to a move to Real Madrid although his agent insisted he was happy at Old Trafford “at the moment” and planned to stay.
Edurne and De Gea, 24, met in November 2010 at the recording of a charity CD in Madrid and started dating soon after.
The pretty blonde was chosen to represent Spain at this year’s Eurovision Song contest in January.
She said at the time: “David was happy for me when I told him, just like my family and friends.“The people who love you share in your good news.
“David and I are very happy together. “I think he’s going to be tied up with league commitments but I hope he can be there at the final along with my family and friends so we can live the experience together.”
