Manchester United goal”keeper, David De Gea, has said he is left with a feeling of happiness as teamm’ates and compatriot, Juan Mata leaves Old Trafford.

The midfielder’s contract at Manch’ester United has come to an end and the 34-year-old has decided to m’ove on.
He could be returning to Spain li’kely, although his next move has not been confirmed.
“Thought this would be a very dif’ficult one to express into words but when I thought about it more, the ma’in feeling I am left with is happiness,” De Gea posted on soc’ial media.
“This guy has been a teammate, a frie’nd and is my family.
“I love you my brother, I wish you everythi’ng and absolutely nothing but joy and success in your next stage of an unbelie’vable career,” he said.
Manchester United had a very poor and disappo’inting 2021-22 season and only managed to finish 6th in the Pre’mier League.
