Motherwell manager Stuart McCall bids farewell to influential young midfielder Jamie Murphy.

Motherwell manager Stuart McCall paid tribute to the outgoing Jamie Murphy after the winger played his final game for the club in the 1-0 defeat to Celtic.

The 23-year-old is bound for League One outfit Sheffield United after 11 years with the Scottish Premier League side.

"I had a tear in my eye going on the pitch at the end for Jamie," Sky Sports News quotes McCall as saying. "We had a few words and a round of applause for him in the dressing room.

"I think he will do really well down there and he will always be welcome at Motherwell. He is a terrific kid. I have only known him two years but was lucky to work with him."

Murphy won a penalty in the league clash with Celtic that Tom Hateley failed to convert, meaning that Gary Hooper's second-half strike proved decisive.
