HE’LL GO DOWN as the strangest signing Manchester United ever made and he certainly never managed to make any impact on the club, despite his relatively high-profile capture.

Right now, he’s in Spain with Rayo Vallecano and on Saturday, he scored his first goal for the club – an absolute screamer against Sevilla.
