Juan Mata predicted who Paul Pogba 's successor at Manchester United would be before he confirmed his departure from Old Trafford.
Both the Spaniard and Pogba will leave the Red Devils at the end of June when their contracts expire. United will likely look to replace both players, with midfield one of the areas in their squad that badly needs strengthening.
The transfer market is one of the ways Erik Ten Hag will look to do that, though he could also promote from within. And Mata has already pointed to one player who he believes would be a successful part of United's senior team.
