PHIL JONES has revealed where he will be watching the FA Cup Final from as he prepares for his last game as a Manchester United player.
The centre-back, 31, has spent 12 years at Old Trafford since signing from Blackburn in 2011.
The former England international has been plagued by injuries in recent years and has been restricted to just five appearances since the start of the 2020/21 season.
He has not played a minute under Erik ten Hag this term and his last outing was as substitute in a 3-0 win over Brentford on May 2 last year.
He recently confirmed his United exit as he prepares to become a free agent at the end of the month.
Jones was gifted a framed memento by United chief Darren Fletcher after it was announced he would be leaving the club last month.
But there is still one fixture to be played before his deal comes to a close – although the man signed by Sir Alex Ferguson will not be playing any part.
However, the versatile ace has now taken to Twitter to thank both the club and its supporters for his heartwarming send-off.
And he revealed that he will be joining fans in the stands at Wembley to cheer on his soon-to-be ex-team mates against Manchester City in the FA Cup Final tomorrow.
Jones tweeted: “I want to express my thanks for the incredible love and support over the last week.

“I’ve known how special the United fans are, but this week has shown just how special.
“I hope you enjoy the FA Cup Final, I’ll be supporting the lads in the stands, backing them just as much as you.”
Jones made 229 appearances for Man Utd, winning the Premier League, FA Cup and Europa League.
He also racked up 27 caps for England between 2011 and 2018.
Jones turned down a testimonial and explained he did so because “there’d be only my mum and dad who would turn up”.
