Spanish international, David Degea has announced his exit from Manchester United.
He leaves United as a free agent after 12 seasons at Old Trafford.
“I just wanted to send this farewell message to all Manchester United supporters,” De Gea wrote on social media.
“I would like to express my unwavering gratitude and appreciation for the love from the last 12 years.
“We’ve achieved a lot since my dear Sir Alex Ferguson brought me to this club. I took incredible pride every time I pulled on this shirt, to lead the team, to represent this institution, the biggest club in the world was an honour only bestowed upon a few lucky footballers.
“It’s been an unforgettable and successful period since I came here.
“I didn’t think from leaving Madrid as a young boy we would achieve what we did together. Now, it’s the right time to undertake a new challenge, to push myself again in new surroundings.
“Manchester will always be in my heart, Manchester has shaped me and will never leave me. We’ve seen it all.”
The 32-year-old goalkeeper first joined the Premier League club in 2011 from Athletico Madrid, making 545 appearances for the club; Spain international broke Peter Schmeichel’s club clean sheets record in the 2022/23 season.
