Manchester United departing starlet Zidane Iqbal has paid tribute to his time at the club.

The Mancunian, who represents Iraq at international level, has signed for FC Utrecht.

While Iqbal can come back to United through a buy-back clause in the transfer agreement, he knows that his days of playing at Old Trafford may be over.

He told Sky Sports: "It was amazing, but all good things must come to an end. I look back at what I've done at United and I'm proud.

"Not many people can say they've played for United and I've definitely fulfilled a childhood dream.

"Good things come to an end and now I'm just looking forward to the future and becoming a better person and player. I feel like this step is going to help me do that."
