The German has the quality and the experience to thrive at Old Trafford, and it remains to be seen how the situation develops.

Liverpool and Manchester United reportedly sent scouts to watch the player in action at the weekend, and he produced a man-of-the-match performance. Raum is at the peak of his career, and this is the right time for him to take on a new challenge. The move to the Premier League could be perfectly timed for him. Raum has 11 goal contributions this season.
