After Rasmus Hojlund’s announcement on the weekend, Anthony Martial’s status at Manchester United has become the next topic of intrigue in the red half of Manchester. The French forward, who has been a part of the club’s landscape for years, could be in line for a potential exit if the right offer comes in.

Man United Open to Selling Anthony Martial for the Right Price

Frenchman Could Be On His Way Out Following Speculation

That is according to Fabrizio Romano who shed light on Martial’s situation in his recent exclusive column. While confirming Martial is not close to any move now, Romano hinted at a possible departure if an “important proposal” emerges. This stance positions Martial in the “same range” as Scott McTominay and Harry Maguire, whose futures also appear to be subject to the right conditions.

Rotation Role or Transfer?

The dynamics of Erik ten Hag’s squad could be at play here. Romano states that the “feeling” now is that Martial would be part squad as a rotation player, something that may not please him ahead of the start of the new season.

It’s now a delicate balance between deciding to keep a key player within the fold or capitalising on a valuable transfer opportunity that could raise funds for further action in the window.

Martial’s Mysterious Preseason Absence

Martial’s absence from Saturday’s preseason match against Lens has sparked speculation. With no injury to account for his non-inclusion, fans are left pondering the reasons behind his omission. The fact that he is the only other senior centre forward in the squad other than Hojlund has intensified the curiosity surrounding his situation.

West Ham Interest

As West Ham hope to boost their squad after many important exits this summer, Hammers manager David Moyes has reportedly expressed keen interest in several Manchester United players, now including Martial. Moyes has also pushed for Maguire, and McTominay, identifying them as ideal reinforcements for his squad.

No Resolution as Season Begins

As the Red Devil’s preseason activities conclude and the regular season beckons, the speculation surrounding the striker’s future adds an element of intrigue to the club’s movement in the transfer market. With the window still open, the scenario remains fluid, and the next moves could potentially redefine Martial’s journey at Old Trafford.
