Brought in as one of Jose Mourinho’s disciples, Nemanja Matić has not found the same favour under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Back at Stamford Bridge, the Serbian was hailed as one of the best midfielders in the world for his consistently solid performances. Matić was often labelled as the brick wall, as he would shield the defence while initiating attacks simultaneously. However, we have not seen that side of the midfielder at Old Trafford.

This season the out of favour 31-year-old has only made three Premier League appearances. Granted he’s had a few niggles but even in the times he’s been fit, Ole has not deemed him worthy of a United shirt. On top of all that, the Serbian has fuelled rumours of an exit by liking an Instagram post linking him with a move to Tottenham. And why not? He would get to link up with his mentor Jose Mourinho again.
