Van Gaal will hold talks with the Spain international later today.
Van Gaal kept the 24-year-old goalkeeper out of the United squad as the Real Madrid transfer saga rumbled on this summer.
The Dutchman is now ready to bury the hatchet with De Gea and reinstate him as the United No.1.
De Gea featured in his first competitive action of the season on Tuesday in Spain’s 1-0 win over Macedonia.
