Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal has revealed that bought Anthony Martial for Ryan Giggs.
Van Gaal has less than two years to run on his contract – and is expected to genuinely challenge for major honours this season.
Whether Martial can ease the goal-scoring burden on Wayne Rooney and turn United into serious title contenders remains to be seen.
Speaking at a supporters event on Wednesday night, Van Gaal said: “Yes I spend a lot of money on Martial – but I buy him for my successor, Ryan Giggs.”
