Ranieri declares Man Utd striker Martial his best ever signing

Former Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri has hailed Anthony Martial as his best ever signing.

The Italian boss signed the forward for Monaco for around £4m in 2013 from Lyon.

And two years later the French champions cashed in on the 21-year old and flogged him to Manchester United for a total of £52m when add-ons are included.

He said: “I think the best was Martial for Monaco.

“We buy him for €5m and sell for €60m."
