Despite winning the Premier league with Chelsea twice, Nemanja Matic says Manchester United are the biggest club he has played for. While he admits that Chelsea are also a big club, he believes dumping the Blues for the Red Devils is like leaving Okokomaiko for Lekki.
When asked if United are the biggest club he’s played for, Matic said: ‘Definitely, everyone knows what Manchester United is about.
‘When you say Manchester United, it is different. Also Chelsea is a big club, Benfica are the biggest club in Portugal. But Manchester is Manchester.
‘When I came here for the first day, I could feel that the people at the club help you every day if you need something and supporters are very important for this club.
‘After every training session, they are waiting for us outside the training ground to take pictures, to give a signature so I think the club is one of the biggest in the world.
‘Maybe you have two or three clubs similar to United, but Manchester is one of the biggest clubs in the world for sure.’
Matic started in United’s opening game of the season as they defeated West Ham 4-0 at the Old Trafford.
