Manchester United have completed the loan signing of Bayern Munich midfielder Marcel Sabitzer until the end of the season. This move was forced upon on United after the injury to Eriksen which ruled the Danish midfielder out till April end. With Eriksen out, United’s midfield options become very limited with both Donny van de Beek and Scott Mctominay also injured, so signing Sabitzer on loan made perfect sense for United.

Sabitzer is known for his strong technical ability, workrate, and an eye for a pass. He is also known for his accurate shooting from distance, as well as his aerial prowess. He is a hardworking player, known for his work rate and defensive contribution, which makes him a valuable asset for his team, especially in the deeper midfield role alongside Casemiro.
