Nemanja Matic has announced that he will be leaving Premier League giants Manchester United at the end of the ongoing season despite having a year left on his contract at Old Trafford.

It was in 2020 that Nemanja Matic signed new deal at Manchester United under former manager Ole Solskjaer, but he has now decided to quit the Red Devils.

According to the report on UK Sun, the Serbian professional footballer explained that it was a difficult decision for him to announce that he is leaving Manchester United.
