With the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo, Anthony Martial moved back into the second row at Manchester United. Now he is planning his departure.
French striker Anthony Martial is apparently planning to leave Manchester United. This was revealed by his advisor Philippe Lamboley. “Anthony would like to leave the association in January,” said the managing director of the agency USFA Management in an interview with Sky Sports News.
Laboley said: “He just has to play. He doesn’t want to stay in January and I’ll talk to the club soon.” Martial has only scored one goal in ten appearances this season and was only four times in the Red’s starting lineup Devils.
With CR7 only in the second row: Martial wants to leave United
In 2015, the then 19-year-old moved from AS Monaco to Manchester for 60 million euros, where he scored a total of 17 goals in his debut season. As a result, he found it difficult to build on these good performances on the offensive flank for a long time.
Martial’s potential only flared up again when he returned to his favorite position in the storm center in 2019. However, with the return of Cristiano Ronaldo, the Frenchman moved back to the second row this season and is now looking for alternatives. His contract with United runs until 2024.
