10 Players Manchester United Should Target In The Summer

#7 Jean Michael Seri

Seri's move to Barcelona failed last season

One might argue that Jean Michael Seri has had an underwhelming season this time around, but well we know how footballers can’t perform to their best when they do not want to stay in a particular club. Seri’s dream move to Barcelona broke down last summer and that seems to have affected his performances too. His talent is not in doubt, though and it is generally believed that he would be back pulling the strings in midfield once he moves out of Nice.

Seri is a deep-lying playmaker as such, who sits in his half and breaks down attacks. He then initiates counter-attacks with his immense pace and strength on the break and slick passing. Seri drives the team ahead and carries to ball from the midfield to near the penalty box to create chances. His long-range shooting is commendable too, as is his ability to break down the opposition defence with accurate through-balls.

Seri can act as a perfect foil alongside Nemanja Matic and Paul Pogba in a midfield three. He sprays the ball out from the midfield and would be a replacement for Michael Carrick.
