5 Things Man Utd Fans Need To Know About Morgan Schneiderlin

2. He Is Worth £25 Million

The fee isn't really important. Manchester United knew they would have to pay that kind of figure in order for Southampton to sell as their transfer policy remains extremely diligent. Without drawing some boring comparison to a player who cost around £20 million and judging the Frenchman against him (Good luck Mr Sterling) it's obvious that Schneiderlin was good value. A specialist in his position and the ability to dictate games the 25-year-old has sell-on potential and is one of the cheaper options that Manchester United have pursued this summer. He is yet to prove himself among the elite and has no Champions League experience but he proved last season that he can compete in the big games with a string of fine performances against the top four.
