Man United players pay tribute to Ryan Giggs on social media

Ryan Giggs leaves Manchester United as the club’s most decorated player ever and judging by the reactions of Red Devils players, he will be sorely missed at Old Trafford.

Giggs announced on Saturday he will be leaving United after 29 years at the club in order to pursue his managerial ambitions elsewhere.

The 42-year-old made an indelible mark on United's history with 963 first-team appearances in all competitions after his debut in 1991 before becoming the club's assistant manager.

United's players - both past and present - took to social media to pay tribute to Giggs.

Michael Carrick tweeted: "Gonna miss this fella. All great things come to an end I suppose. He's gonna make a top manager. Good luck mate."

Ashley Young tweeted: "Mr @ManUtd. What a career! A fantastic leader, example & inspiration for young players. A true legend! #GiggsLegend"

Ander Herrera tweeted: "It has been a great honour to learn from such a football legend like you. I wish you all the best. #Giggs #Legend"

Jesse Lingard posted on Instagram: "Just like to wish giggsy all the best for the future. Legend at the club and just like to thank him for everything he's done for me #giggslegend #manchesterunited"

Rio Ferdinand tweeted: "Ryan Giggs - 🎽 963 apps ⚽️ 168 goals 🏆 34 trophies #MUFC Legend"

Phil Jones tweeted: "To play alongside him & to play for him is something I'll never forget. Thanks Giggsy, All the best mate. @ManUtd"

Marcus Rojo tweeted: "All the best #GiggsLegend"

Danny Higginbottom tweeted: "I consider myself very fortunate to have played in the same team as Ryan Giggs and played against him on plenty of occasions. All-time great."

When asked for his thoughts on Giggs' departure, Peter Schmeichel tweeted: "Sad, but good if he wants the chance of returning as manager. Experience is key so he's going out there for it."

Daley Blind wrote: "I wish you all the best in the future, a Legend but also a great personality! Learned a lot. Thanks #GiggsLegend"
