Finally some good news for Manchester United fans, as their new big-money signing has been given a glowing write-up from one of their best-loved former stars.
Anthony Martial might not be that well known to the Red Devils’ supporters – or even some of their players – but another famous French forward has spoken highly of the teenager.
Cantona: "Martial is France' biggest talent, in three years he'll be worth €100m. Hopefully he scores many goals for United." #MUFC
