Officially the skipper of Manchester United, Antonio Valencia, has hardly featured for the team this season. He has been one of the better performers for United in the past two seasons. Offering width and speed down the right side where no proper right-winger is deployed to date. Sir Alex signed him as a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo but he had excelled in a much defensive position in recent years.

His primary duty has been to make attacking runs and put crosses inside the box. In the meantime, he has scored some scintillating goals as well but now it's time to bid adieu to the skipper. This season he has featured in eight games, with no speed and no energy. His pace has been his biggest asset over the years but at the age of 33, he would only get slower.

His contract is going to expire this June and with no reports of a contract extension, we are waiting for an official confirmation of his departure. His recent Instagram story said, "thank you" with the background of Old Trafford suggesting that the club and player have finally reached the agreement to move separate ways.
