Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has wished Eric Ramsay the very best of luck for his new career in Major League Soccer.
Ramsay's final game at the club will be Sunday's Manchester derby with City, at the Etihad Stadium, after he accepted the post of Minnesota United head coach.
He will become the youngest coach in the league's history after building his reputation at Old Trafford, since joining the Reds from Chelsea in 2021.
