Manchester United veteran Nemanja Matic has announced that he wants to end his English stay this summer for ventures elsewhere. News that could spell bad news for Arsenal and Mikel Arteta come at the start of the transfer window.
With both clubs now outsiders for a top-four finish, it wouldn't be a surprise if both were to target the same calibre of player, with Arteta and Erik ten Hag - expected to be named the new boss at Old Trafford - set for their own rebuilds once this season comes to a close. One area of concern for both clubs lies in the midfield area, and those worries amplify further for United now due to what the former Chelsea man announced on his social media during this Easter weekend.
As per our sister title, the Manchester Evening News, the 33-year-old has announced that he's looking to part ways with United, despite having a bit of time to run on his current deal. The Serb wrote on Instagram: "After a great deal of thought, I have decided that this season will be my last with Manchester United. I have informed the board, the manager and the players of my decision.
