Morgan Schneiderlin goes above and beyond the call of duty to keep fans happy

Class act

If you send Morgan Schneiderlin fan mail, he’s almost certainly going to reply.

Unsurprisingly, as a Manchester United player, Schneiderlin receives a lot of letters from fans across the world. What is surprising, however, is that the French midfielder reads and replies to every single one of them.

A United official made the revelation to The Sun.

“Morgan takes his responsibility to fans very seriously. He gets dozens of letters a week and because he is at Manchester United and is from France he gets more than most.”

“Some players don’t get round to taking their letters home or they ask someone in the office to reply to a few. But Morgan comes in every week and takes every single one home and reads the lot.”

“That’s brilliant and shows how humble he is. Reading the letters from the fans keeps the players honest and reminds them who are the most important people to the club.”

It is understood that he hand-writes each envelope and encloses a signed photograph with every response. How ridiculously sound of him.
