Morgan Schneiderlin was once a household name in football, becoming a top player in England with Southampton.
The Frenchman played 261 times for the Saints.
And he then secured a dream £25m switch to Manchester United in 2015.
Schneiderlin, who met now-wife Camille Sold in a shop during his spell at Old Trafford, played 47 times for the Red Devils.

But his United career lasted just 18 months before he was shipped off the Everton.
Schneiderlin remained three-and-a-half years at Goodison Park.
And he then returned to France with Nice for 18 months before spending the second part of last season on loan at Western Sydney Wanderers.
But the Australian side opted against making Schneiderlin’s loan permanent.

And with his Nice contract also up, the midfielder now finds himself a free agent ahead of the new football campaign.
Schneiderlin certainly has plenty in the bank to keep him going, earning over £40m during his time as a professional player.
But he will be hoping to return to the beautiful game with a new side while pre-season preparations are still ongoing.
And Schneiderlin is sure to be supported in his endeavours by stunning wife Camille.
The pair met in 2015 as she worked as a £10-an-hour shop assistant in Adidas.
And they married less than two years later, with Schneiderlin proposing while Camille was still working at the business in Manchester City Centre.
