The Frenchmen soon established himself as one of the best defensive midfielders in the top flight at Southampton and was signed by Manchester United in 2015 for a fee reported to be in the region of £25 million. However, he made just 47 appearances for United in his time at Old Trafford and was sold to Everton in January 2016 on a four-year-deal on Merseyside where he would go on to play 88 games for the Toffees.
