Manchester United have been told that potential signing Marcel Sabitzer is far more effective going forwards but is not anticipated to have an immediate impact at Old Trafford.
The Bayern Munich midfielder has been linked with a deadline day switch to United with the Red Devils aiming to bolster their options in the centre of the park. Danish playmaker Christian Eriksen is expected to be restricted to the sidelines for the foreseeable future after the injury he picked up in the recent FA Cup victory over Reading.
Reports have suggested that both United and Premier League rivals Chelsea have submitted enquiries to take him on loan for the remainder of the campaign following a disappointing spell in Bavaria. Former Bayern star Dietmar Hamann has suggested that Sabitzer could certainly help the Red Devils on the attacking front but will take time to get up to top form in the Premier League.
