1 Antonio Valencia is happy at Manchester United

Manchester United winger Antonio Valencia has split from his agent as he does not believe he needs one.

Valencia has been in stunning form for United this season and has set up eight goals already, having recovered from an ankle injury sustained in pre-season.

The arrival of Ashley Young raised question marks over Valencia's future and Juventus have repeatedly been linked with a move for the Ecuador international in the past.

But Valencia, who has a contract at United for another three years, says he does not want to leave Old Trafford and as such, he does not require the services of agent Diego Herrera to help with any potential move away – with the split understood to be amicable.

The United star is so happy with life at Old Trafford he feels he does not need an agent to help broker any deals elsewhere and he told Argentina radio De La Red: "I do not want to move from Manchester I am very happy and so I separated from Diego (Herrera). I'm happy where I live and I enjoy being in Manchester every day."
