Man Utd expected to release striker next summer

Martial set to leave Man Utd

Man Utd expected to release striker next summer

05 January 2024 - 20:34

Manchester United are expected to part ways with Anthony Martial when his contract expires at the end of the campaign.

  • Chido Obi to leave Man Utd on loan
  • Chelsea star suffers hamstring injury on international duty
  • The Frenchman has been a regular on the bench in the current season and he has missed the past few games with illness.

    His current deal expires at the end of June and United have decided against triggering an extension clause for another year.

    Instead, they plan to offload him on a free transfer in the summer as they have no plans of meeting his current wage demands.

    Martial has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia in recent weeks while Turkish club Fenerbahce are also his admirers.

    However, United seem determined to keep him until the conclusion of the season, considering the limited firepower up front.

    Even if they pursue a striker on loan this month, manager Erik ten Hag is determined to keep him for the rest of the campaign.

    Martial could secure a big-money move to the Middle East this summer.
