Galbraith announces Man Utd departure

Manchester United talent Ethan Galbraith will leave Old Trafford this summer.

The Northern Ireland international is out of contract in June, and the club have decided not to offer him a new deal.

Galbraith, 22, has paid tribute to the club on social media as he announced that his career will take him to a new team in the summer.

The midfielder wrote: "After six years, my time has come to an end with this magnificent club, Manchester United. I want to thank the club, coaching staff and players for helping me become a better player, a better person and for making me feel at home.

"My earliest ambition as a boy was to become a professional footballer and I'm forever grateful to the club for giving me the opportunity and support to fulfil that dream. It's been a privilege and I feel very honoured to have been able to represent the club.

"I step into the next chapter of my career a more mature, well rounded person and I'm excited for what's next."
