The Belgian's decision to join Chelsea has led to the Red Devils' financial competitiveness being questioned, yet the midfielder may be just what is missing at Old Trafford

Eden Hazard’s recent decision to join Champions League winners Chelsea over Manchester United has led to wider questions being asked over the Red Devils' ability to financially compete with their Premier League rivals.

However, the Belgian starlet’s £32 million switch to Stamford Bridge has, in turn, seen United reach an agreement to sign Shinji Kagawa - and while the Borussia Dortmund playmaker may not fetch such an extravagant fee as Hazard, he has dazzled just as equally this season as he helped his side to the German league and cup double.

Now with the view from England and Kagawa’s native Japan, as well as at how Sir Alex Ferguson may have just found the right player to fire his men back to title glory next season.
Shinji Kagawa played just 11 matches with Cerezo Osaka in Japan’s top division before moving to the Bundesliga, but it took him virtually no time at all to find his comfort zone under manager Jurgen Klopp.

The player’s first moment of stardom at Dortmund came in the fourth week of the 2010 season, when he claimed that he would score two goals in the Revierderby against Schalke. He did so in a fantastic display, and upon his return to the airport was met by 800 fans who jubilantly carried him off on their shoulders.

At Westfalonstadion, Kagawa played the shadow-striker role in a 4-2-3-1 formation; in Alberto Zaccheroni's Japan national team he concedes that position to CSKA Moscow attacker Keisuke Honda and takes up a position on the left wing.

Kagawa has also been inserted as the lone striker in some Samurai Blue matches, but often appears to lack confidence up top, preferring the second line where he can alternate and overlap with his team-mates.
