Nemanja Matic has insisted Manchester United is the biggest club he has played for.

The Serb completed a £40million move from Chelsea earlier this summer in what appears an excellent piece of business by the Red Devils.

Matic was excellent on his debut against West Ham on Sunday as Jose Mourinho’s men got off to a winning start.

And after lifting the Premier League title twice at Stamford Bridge, he believes United have all the tools to pip them to the post this time around.

“Everyone knows what Manchester United is about. It is different,” he said.

“Chelsea is a big club, Benfica are the biggest club in Portugal. But Manchester United is Manchester United.”
