Juan Mata is returning to Manchester.

The Galatasaray star returns to the city to curate an art exhibition focusing on football.

Mata left Manchester United in 2022 but will be attending this year's Manchester International Festival.

Mata said: "It is fantastic to be returning to Manchester, the city I called home for more than eight years, and to be part of Manchester International Festival for the first time.

"I am thrilled to be co-curating 'The Trequartista – Art and Football United' with Hans Ulrich Obrist over the next two years, bringing together two of my passions: the worlds of football and art."
