‘Gutted’, ‘Will regret this’ – fans unhappy as Manchester United confirm Johnstone departure

Manchester United confirmed on Tuesday that Sam Johnstone left to join West Bromwich Albion on a permanent deal and supporters weren’t happy with the news. Johnstone follows Dean Henderson out the exit door, although the latter has only left on loan.

As for Johnstone, the 25-year-old goalkeeper was out of contract this summer and previously made it clear that he wouldn’t be extending his deal at Old Trafford due to the lack of opportunities under Jose Mourinho. Due to his quality, however, fans aren’t pleased to see the talented player leave.
