At Anfield, Divock Origi will go down as a cult hero, and Fernandinho's time at Man City could not have ended any better, but Paul Pogba's time is over.
The stars are saying their goodbyes to the Premier League this summer. Several of the Premier League's greatest names will be leaving at the end of the season.
Fernandinho won the Premier League after his final appearance for Manchester City. Divock Origi was given a gift at Anfield as he prepares to leave Liverpool.
Edinson Cavani, Paul Pogba, Juan Mata, and Nemanja Matic will all leave United. Chelsea defenders Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen bid their goodbyes.
Toward the end of the season, a few farewells are usual. Some people enjoy it while others despise it.
On Sunday, a number of Premier League luminaries said their final farewell to the country, including title winners, Champions League winners, and club leaders.
UrbanNewsGh profiles the biggest names saying their goodbyes to England's top division ahead of the summer transfer season.
Paul Pogba is number one (Manchester United)
Paul Pogba's return to Manchester United, one of the most eagerly anticipated arrivals in Premier League history, failed to measure up to the expectations.
He was the most expensive transfer in world football at the moment when he came in 2016. The French international has flashes of brilliance and a few truly world-class performances in red, but consistency has always been a concern for him.
Frustrations developed as he excelled with his country, winning the World Cup in 2018 after playing a key role in Didier Deschamps' team.
Pogba would often voice his desire to quit United, but he would always be convinced to stay, prolonging the agony for another year or two.
Antonio Rudiger, No. 2 (Chelsea)
Antonio Rudiger's exit from Chelsea does not appear to be mutually agreed upon.
Antonio Rudiger discusses the circumstances surrounding his departure from Chelsea exclusively with Sportsmail.
The German centre back has been a solid presence at the back for Thomas Tuchel's side this season, and the 29-year-old has been one of the top performers at the club.
His decision to leave Stamford Bridge after five years is partially motivated by his displeasure with the club's protracted discussions, which has only worsened since owner Roman Abramovich was sanctioned.
Rudiger will join Real Madrid this summer after winning the Champions League, Europa League, Super Cup, Club World Cup, and FA Cup.
Fernandinho is number three (Manchester City)
Fernandinho's career with Manchester City ended happily. Pep Guardiola was desperate for a way to come back from a goal down against Aston Villa on the final day, and the club captain was hooked at half-time in his farewell game for the club.
The Brazilian has established himself as a cult legend at the Etihad since signing from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2013.
After 383 appearances in all competitions and five Premier League crowns, the 37-year-old has decided to call it a day in his homeland.
Guardiola's initial remark, which he made when asked about his future at a Champions League press conference ahead of their match against Real Madrid, had caught him off guard.
Edinson Cavani is the fourth player on the list (Manchester United)
One of the game's best finishers met an untimely demise at Old Trafford.
His first season with Manchester United was a huge success, with the Uruguyan scoring 17 goals in 39 games to convince the club to keep him.
The 35-year-old, like United's overall performance this season, was a huge disappointment.
Many of his struggles stemmed from injuries, as he was plagued with knocks, tendon issues, and groin issues all season. Even when he did go on the pitch, however, he seemed to lose his lethal spark in front of goal.
He only scored twice this season, and his frustration eventually got the best of him, with his final act as a United player appearing to be yelling at fans as he jumped onto the team bus after their 1-0 loss at Crystal Palace.
Divock Origi, No. 5 (Liverpool)
Despite not being the first name on the team sheet, Divock Origi's importance to Liverpool's recent past cannot be overstated.
The Belgian striker cemented his place in Anfield history with a string of key goals, notably the game-winning fourth goal in Liverpool's epic Champions League semi-final comeback against Barcelona in 2019.
There was also a goal in the final, as Jurgen Klopp's side won the trophy. He has won the Merseyside Derby in previous seasons and put in efforts that kept his team in contention for the title.
On Sunday, Origi, who will join AC Milan this summer, was given a suitable send-off, one many would argue was well-deserved.
