Schneiderlin To Manchester United (Finally)
Morgan Schneiderlin is on the verge of finally joining Manchester United in a move that will nets Saints in the region of £25 million
Depending on what report you read Morgan Schneiderlin has either undergone or is about to undergo a medical ahead of completing a move to Old Trafford that could be done as quickly as Monday morning so that he can join his new team mates on their tour of the USA.
Personally although it will be sad to see him go I wish Morgan well, he has been a good servant to Saints and deserves a big money move at this stage of his career, his loyalty to Southampton Football Club I not in question.
He is rumoured to be about to sign a £100k a week contract and that is perhaps not a wage he could have earned with us.
Perhaps Morgan is not grateful to Saints that they stood firm last year at her than let him join Spurs, it has certainly been better for his career in the long term.
So good luck Morgan Schneiderlin, when you retune to St Mary's I hope Saints supporters give you a warm welcome and thank you for your efforts in a way we never got the chance to do last season due to injury.
