Man Utd attacker Elanga: I'm sorry Pogba and Matic leaving

Manchester United attacker Anthony Elanga says his football education has accelerated over the past year.

Elanga just scored his first goal for Sweden after an impressive club campaign.

"I learned so much. Both on and off the field. When you play in a club like Manchester United, there is a lot of pressure every day, so you have to be strong mentally and handle it," he told Expressen.

"They (teammates) have all been good to me.

"Many players. Those who are going to leave, like Matic, Pogba have helped me a lot, he is like a big brother to me. They have all been good to me, Victor (Lindelof) too, both here in the national team and in United. So there are many, I can not choose one.

Both Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic will leave United this summer and Elanga added: "It's a shame, but that's how life is, that's how football goes. I wish them all the best."
