Lille starlet Angel Gomes insists he has no regrets over leaving Manchester United.
The 21-year-old, who left United in the summer of 2020, has earned his first call-up to the England U21 squad after an impressive start to the season in France.
"Of course, you are leaving your home, family and friends," Gomes told a press conference after linking up with Lee Carsley's squad when asked to reflect on his Red Devils exit in 2020.
"You are leaving your home and that was the most difficult thing, knowing you are not going to be there any more. For me it was getting it out of your head and seeing the new challenge in front and tackle that.
"I wouldn't say I doubted myself but there were times when you get upset and think back. In football there is no time for that."
Gomes came through the ranks at United and played a few handful of senior games before leaving Old Trafford to pursue more opportunities.
The attacking midfielder spent last season on loan at Boavista, scoring six goals in 30 appearances.
