Ashley Young has completed his €1.5 million move from Manchester United to Serie A title challengers Inter.
The 34-year-old, whose contract at Old Trafford was set to expire at the end of the season, has signed immediately with a contract running until June 30, 2020 with an option for a further year.
Young played 261 times for United after joining from Aston Villa in 2011, scoring 19 goals along the way.
He won the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Community Shield and Europa League, and had been captain of the club for the past three seasons.
Young wrote on Twitter: “To Manchester United: You gave me the chance to play with legends, to win trophies, to work under the greatest manager in history and to be your captain.
“Thank you for letting me be part of your story for eight and a half years.
“To the United fans: Every time I walked on the pitch wearing your shirt I gave you my all.
“Thank you for your support during the highs and the lows. I leave as one of you, see you again in an away end soon.”
Defender Harry Maguire is now set to take on the United captaincy on a permanent basis. The 26-year-old has worn the armband on a number of occasions already this season, despite only joining from Leicester at the beginning of the campaign.
“He [Young] is 35 in the summer and if he gets a two-year contract somewhere it’s up to him to take that,” manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer told reporters.
