Manchester United 'run out of patience with Anthony Martial'

Man United 'run out of patience with Anthony Martial'

Manchester United are reportedly prepared to sell forward Anthony Martial after running out patience with the player, who has been at Old Trafford since 2015.

The 27-year-old played 57 minutes of United's 1-0 win at Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon, but raised eyebrows when he decided to immediately disappear down the tunnel at the Vitality Stadium after being replaced by Wout Weghorst.

Having fallen out of favour and subsequently been loaned out to La Liga outfit Sevilla for the second half of the 2021-22 season, the Frenchman has been given a chance by current boss Erik ten Hag this term, appearing 19 times in the Premier League.

According to The Sun, Manchester United's hierarchy want Martial to leave the club at the conclusion of this campaign - a wish that Ten Hag is said to share.

The report adds that the Red Devils will listen to any offers for the former Monaco man as they look to replace Martial with a forward who can provide significant support for Marcus Rashford in the goalscoring department.

United have two games to earn the point they need to secure Champions League football for next season - their first opportunity to do so arrives on Thursday night when Chelsea visit Old Trafford in the Premier League.
