It’s something United fans have known all season, but a number of eye-catching, match-winning performances from the Frenchman this winter has seen the rest of the country take note.
But where does the ex-Nice winger rank when it comes to dribbles per 90 minutes when it comes to the rest of the Premier League. Here’s the top seven top flight players, according to Wyscout.
5. Moussa Djenepo - Southampton
The Malian left winger was the third player in the Premier League's top five dribblers to be on show at St Mary's on Saturday, but, due to a rash challenge and VAR, he lasted just 28 minutes against Newcastle United. Djenepo has averaged 11.01 dribbles per 90 in the top flight from 18 games. Identical to Saint-Maximin, he also has two goals and two assists this season. Photo: Jordan Mansfield
6. Onel Hernandez - Norwich City
The Cuban has one goal and one assist this season but is a lively operator with 9.74 dribbles per game in the Premier League, ranking him just outside the top flight's top five. Photo: Justin Setterfield
7. Callum Hudson-Odoi - Chelsea
At just 19, Hudson-Odoi is one of the most talented teenagers on the planet. For Chelsea and England he looks set to terrorise full-backs across the globe for years to come. From his 17 games this season, he's averaged 9.58 dribbles per game. He's returned one goal and four assists in that time. Photo: Michael Regan
