The defeat against Newcastle was another blow in a season already riddled with challenges for United.

He wrote: "I would like to thank you on behalf of everyone at Manchester United for your loyal support, and wish you all the very best for the new year. I know it will take a lot of hard work from everyone to get there, but I am very excited about where we can go together in 2025."
