Zlatan has an aura, presence and stature - Man Utd midfielder Schneiderlin

Morgan Schneiderlin has spoken glowingly of the impact Zlatan Ibrahimovic has already had on the Manchester United playing group.

The Swedish superstar has received plenty of praise from his Red Devils colleagues since arriving for pre-season training and French midfielder Schneiderlin is one of many to join the ever-growing chorus of admirers.

"Zlatan came into the dressing room and he already had an aura," Schneiderlin told FourFourTwo.

"He has this thing about him, it is a presence and a stature. He is tall, powerful and, on the training pitch, you can see he has a lot of quality.

"Of course, this is just his first week back as well so he will continue progressing physically.

"But you can see his touch, his movement and his way of seeing football is brilliant, so this season I think he will give us something great."
