David de Gea said Manchester United made the correct decision appointing Jose Mourinho, adding the Premier League club have missed a manager like the Portuguese.
Mourinho was unveiled as United manager last month, replacing Louis van Gaal just days after the Dutchman won the FA Cup.
"I came to United to win trophies. It is true these last two years we have not been at the level the club deserves," De Gea told Cadena Ser.
"We hope that Mourinho, with his will to win, will make sure United to return to the top.
"I have not spoken with Mourinho and not asked team-mates about him. I think we already know him.
"At United we've missed a manager like Mourinho. With the personality and mindset of a winner. Getting him was right."
