Martial wants lengthy stay at Man Utd

Anthony Martial has claimed that he expects to be at Manchester United for a "good while yet".

The France international has scored 17 goals for the Red Devils this season following his £38m move from Monaco last summer.

The 20-year-old will hope to add to his tally this evening when United take on Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final at Wembley.

Despite United's inconsistent season, which has ended in the team finishing fifth in the table, Martial has pledged his long-term future to the North-West outfit.

"I love Manchester and see myself being here for a good while yet," Martial told the Daily Mail. "If I was to become an icon I'd be very happy but you can't possibly say at this stage. It depends how I play, how many goals I score and how I perform in the years to come.

"I'll need to score a lot of goals and the team will need to pick up trophies. We're going to do everything we can to bring the FA Cup back to Manchester."

United last won the FA Cup in 2004.
