Ex-United defender is a serial Euro winner... now he's masterminding shock leaders Girona as they try to do a Leicester

DALEY BLIND has played in four title-winning teams since leaving Manchester United.

Now he is helping Spanish minnows Girona in their quest to complete a fairy tale that would rival Leicester's Premier League triumph.

The 33-year-old quit Old Trafford to rejoin Ajax in 2018 and helped them win a hat-trick of Eredivisie titles before a free transfer to Bayern Munich led to him lifting the Bundesliga trophy.

Earlier this year, the Dutchman moved to Girona, a sister club of Manchester City.

And the small Catalan club's sensational 4-2 victory neighbours away to Barcelona last week sent them top of La Liga.
