According to the former England star, he gave his all during the time at the club where he was happy to live his dream.

However, while he was honoured to play for the Red Devils, Jones noted that he was hurt he could not play more for the club he described as the biggest club in the world.

“My time at United has been nothing short of incredible,” Jones stated in the letter.

“To wear this shirt just once. To wear this badge and represent everyone associated with it was an honour.”

“I wish i could have played more,’’ he added. “I wish i could have given more to the many squads i played alongside.”

“I will say from the bottom of my heart, i did everything i could. I did everything the medical team asked of me.”
