Who Is Sofiane Feghouli?

This morning The Daily Telegraph have linked Man United with 19 year old Sofiane Feghouli who is supposed to be the next Zidane. So who is he?

Sofiane Feghouli is a French central midfield player who currently plays for Grenoble. Feghouli was born on the 26th December (Boxing day) 1989 in Levallois-Perret, Paris, France.

Sofiane is eligible to play for both Algeria and France but he has stated that his preference is France, I wonder why?

Man United aren't the only team tracking him, there are a couple: Inter Milan, Athletico Madrid and Juventus are currently being linked with him but Real Madrid, PSG, Chelsea, Bordeaux and Liverpool have previously been linked with him.

Sofiane Feghouli's best position is a central attacking midfielder but he can play anywhere in midfield.

Do we need another central midfielder? He could possibly replace Scholes longer term but if we were to sign him then I don't think it will be in this transfer window.
