FootballWilfried Zaha Unbothered by Failed Stint at Manchester United Ahead of Galatasaray Visit
- Wilfried Zaha has opened up on his Manchester United spell
- The Ivory Coast forward returns to Old Trafford with his new team Galatasaray
- Zaha spent two seasons with the English giants
Wilfried Zaha says he is not bothered after failing to make an impact during his time with English giants Manchester United.
The Galatasaray forward returns to Old Trafford for the first time since leaving the English Premier League in the summer transfer window.
The Ivory Coast winger spent two seasons at Manchester United, struggling to settle at the club despite arriving from Crystal Palace as one of the brightest talents in Europe in 2013.
"I'll be honest, when you look at my face do you think I am bothered at all? No," Zaha said during the pre-match presser.
"I went through a phase in my career, you either build from it or die. It built my character. I was determined not to let my career die out.
"I had my past here but I was 19 or 20. When I went back to Palace and had league games against them, it was just work. I felt no different."
The former Crystal Palace is expected to feature for Galatasaray in the UEFA Champions League game against United on Tuesday night.
Zaha has already scored a goal for the Turkish giants since moving to the Superlig side in the summer transfer window, as reported by transfermarkt.
