Former Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt has expressed his determination to succeed at Manchester United, even after the departure of former manager Erik ten Hag.

In a recent interview with Telegraaf, De Ligt acknowledged Ten Hag's influence but emphasized his commitment to the club: "Yes, but Manchester United is still one of the biggest clubs in the world. I just have to do my own thing and play well myself."

The Dutch international, who joined United in a high-profile move, is focused on his own development and performance: "I feel very fit now and things are going well. I did not just move to Manchester United for Ten Hag."

De Ligt's comments signal his resilience and adaptability, as he prepares to navigate a new era at the club under a different managerial regime. His determination to excel, regardless of managerial changes, highlights his ambition to establish himself as a key player for Manchester United.
