Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has called on his teammates to win the Europa Cup to show that they are 'still around and that they will never give in'.
Although United's 18-year run in the Champions League is almost over, they can still make the Europa League if they qualify in the sixth position, once Manchester City confirms their top-four finish and relinquish the Europa League place their Wembley win over Sunderland would otherwise bring.
According to the Mirror, the Spaniard said that United needs to win all of their remaining five games to win the Europa League as it important that they end their traumatic campaign on a high and prove they are not finished.
De Gea also said that United must not dwell on their Champions League exit at the hands of Bayern Munich in their last match but instead focus on beating Everton at Goodison Park on Sunday.
