Top 10 players excelling after leaving Manchester United

Manchester United have made many signings who have failed to deliver over the past 10 years despite coming for high sums.

Undoubtedly, many of these players have found their careers taking a positive turn after leaving United. Here are the top 10 players who have done exceptionally well after waving goodbye to Old Trafford.

Pereira despite criticism has proven to be a solid Premier League player since his 2022 departure from United. He now serves Fulham with determination and skill.

Although Lukaku has faced numerous challenges after leaving Old Trafford, he has still managed to score frequently - crucial to Inter's Scudetto win and Chelsea's strong season.

Despite being sold to Benfica in the summer, Carreras has shown his value on the field, particularly during a match against Barcelona, raising some eyebrows at United.

The United legend couldn't truly shine at Old Trafford a second time, but after his departure, there's no question Ronaldo has continued to impress. His stint in Saudi Arabia has seen him scoring goals aplenty.

Gomes may have struggled with injuries this season, but his talent still makes him a player to watch. Despite rumours of a return to Old Trafford, he continues to contribute significantly to Lille.

Once considered one of United's most expensive flops, Antony has proven his critics wrong with three goals, one assist, and several standout performances for Real Betis, showing that sometimes, the grass is indeed greener on the other side.

Welbeck has proven his worth at Brighton, performing at a level that has outmatched several of United's forwards. His experience and ability make him an asset any team, including United, would value.

Currently holding more Premier League assists than any other United player, Elanga's quality clearly shows that leaving United hasn't hurt his assist game.

Greenwood is second in the Ligue 1 goalscoring charts with 14 in 22 games for Marseille. The Manchester United academy graduate is showing off his skills to the full extent.

With six goals and four assists in Napoli's title charge, Scott McTominay is seen as a 'complete player'. His contributions have made him a central figure in Antonio Conte's midfield, and a darling for Napoli football fans.

These are merely a few examples of many successful post-United careers, a testament to the potential inherent in all players and the importance of finding the right fit in a club.
