David de Gea has paid tribute to both Paul Pogba and Jesse Lingard after Manchester United confirmed their departures on Wednesday.
The two players will leave Old Trafford when their deals expire at the end of this month. Lingard and Pogba, both 29, came through the academy at United and were part of the side that won the FA Youth Cup in 2011, beating Sheffield United 6-3 on aggregate.
Although they enjoyed success at youth level, both stars have failed to bring United silverware in recent years. The Red Devils haven't won a trophy since they lifted the Europa League in May 2017, and they finished just sixth in the Premier League this season.
