Antonio Valencia has posted a cryptic message on his social media page seemingly confirming his impending Manchester United departure.

The Ecuadorian winger turned right-back has only made five Premier League appearances this season and is expected to leave Old Trafford in the summer when his contract expires.

And on his Instagram stories , Valencia took a picture of the Sir Alex Ferguson stand at Old Trafford with a simple message: "Thank you".

It remains to be seen whether the 33-year-old will be seen again in a United shirt.

Despite being the United captain this season, Valencia has played only one game under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer since the Norwegian replaced Jose Mourinho as manager. That appearance came in the 2-0 victory at Newcastle United on January 1.

Valencia was signed by Ferguson from Wigan Athletic back in 2009 and has been a loyal servant to the Reds ever since, winning the Matt Busby Player of the Year award in 2012.

He's made a total of 338 appearances for the club and will be fondly remembered by United fans if and when he does depart after a 10-year spell.
