London, August 1: Former skipper Gary Neville said new signing Nemanja Matic will fit in well at Manchester United.

Matic has reunited with his former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford after completing a £40million move from the Blues, reported the Daily Mail.

Neville has given his approval to the transfer, saying the defensive midfielder is an important addition for the club.
Neville told Sky Sports: "Michael Carrick's obviously got one more year but he can't play every single week so they've got to have that player come in and do the same job.I believe Nemanja Matic can do that.

"United need a holding midfield player. Morgan Schneiderlin was let go earlier this year, Bastian Schweinsteiger didn't get a game. There needed to be a replacement in there and ultimately I think Matic will fit the bill."

He also questioned Chelsea's decision to sell the Serbia international and wondered why they were letting an important player join a rival. Chelsea have already signed another central midfielder, Tiemoue Bakayoko, from Monaco.
