The Story in 60 Seconds

Former Manchester United defender Tyrell Malacia says he has no regrets about joining the Premier League club despite being exiled to train with youth teams under Ruben Amorim. Now reviving his career in Major League Soccer with FC Cincinnati, the 27-year-old Dutch left-back stated he would make the same decision again.

Malacia made 39 appearances in his debut campaign under Erik ten Hag following a £13m transfer from Feyenoord, but struggled with severe knee injuries and spent long periods sidelined.
