Martial can become Man Utd AND France captain says brother


Manchester United's big-money signing Anthony Martial can one day captain the club according to his brother.


The Red Devils signed the 19-year-old for 
£36million from AS Monaco on deadline day which has turned heads around the UK and Europe.

One person who is not surprised by the high profile signing is Martial's brother Dorian who is of the belief that his sibling has the ability and traits to captain both United and the French national team.
"Anthony has all the qualities needed to be Manchester United and France captain," he told The Sun.
"My little brother isn't someone who will shout at all the players around him. He doesn't need to because he speaks with his incredible skills."
Dorian added: "Anthony is a talisman and has the ego and personality on the pitch to be a captain of Manchester United and even France.
"Of course, not right now — because he is just 19 — but definitely in the future. He comes from a club that has produced two France captains (Laurent Blanc and Patrice Evra)."
Martial made his international debut for Les Bleus in Friday's friendly against Portugal and could now land his first start for the country when they face Serbia on Monday

Chelsea won't sign new players - Jose Mourinho

Chelsea will make no signings in the January transfer window, says manager Jose Mourinho. The team has enough capable and balanced players to even out in the coming competitions. The Blues have six matches before January 1, with the first starting today against Hull City. Mourinho plans to rest his senior players for this Yuletide season, saying he is doubtful any one player should appear in all the six matches. The manager has granted his European-based players a two-day 'holiday' to rest and 'have a nice dinner with their families'. The former Real Madrid manager's side meets Hull City in the Premier league today. Petr Cech will replace injured skipper goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois in the Hull City face-off. Cesc Fabregas is ruled out for suspension and midfielder Nemanja Matic joins the squad after ban.
