Manchester United winger targeted by Spanish side

Spanish side Sevilla are ready to make a move for Manchester United winger Anthony Martial, according to the Sun.

Recent reports indicate that the former Monaco man wants to stay with Jose Mourinho's side, but the Spanish side are looking to test United with a bid.

Jose Mourinho wanted the player to leave Old Trafford, but the United board are adamant that the Frenchman should remain.

The player was linked with a move to Chelsea earlier in the summer, but United reportedly did not want to sell to a Premier League rival.

The 22-year-old has started the season with United, playing 60 minutes in the 3-2 loss to Brighton and Hove Albion last weekend.

Mourinho is willing to let Martial go in January in order to raise funds to strengthen the United squad.

It remains to be seen if the United hierarchy will sanction a Martial sale in January with their belief that the player should be a part of the squad.
