The 21-year-old made 24 Premier League appearances for the Red Devils before teaming up with David Moyes at the Stadium of Light and was quick to thank the Old Trafford outfit.
Paddy McNair has thanked Manchester United fans for their support after he departed to join Sunderland.
The 21-year-old had been with the Red Devils for five years, making his Premier League debut in the 2014-15 campaign under Louis van Gaal and made 24 appearances in the division since then.
The Northern Ireland international, however, has left Old Trafford this summer, joining the Black Cats as part of a £5.5 million double signing with Donald Love.
And McNair was quick to thank the club and the supporters for helping him grow, adding he is looking forward to the challenge that awaits him at the Stadium of Light as he teams up with ex-United boss David Moyes.
I’d like to say a massive thank you to all the fans at Manchester United," he said on Instagram. "It was my dream to play for the club and to have played at Old Trafford with the United shirt on is something I will never forget.
"Also I want to say thank you to all the staff at United who have helped me over the years, from joining as a small boy to playing in the first team.
"It was a difficult decision to leave the club but I want to progress and play regular first team football at the highest level I can. I’ve joined a huge club in Sunderland and I can’t wait to get out and give my all to my new supporters."McNair and Love both signed five year contracts with Sunderland.
