Anthony Martial has not played a professional football game since December 9th 2023.
The Frenchman has been without a club since his contract expired at Manchester United on June 30th.
He held contract negotiations with Brazilian side Flamengo over the summer but the deal fell through.
Martial’s high salary demands were an obstacle in reaching an agreement.
It has been recently revealed that Martial is set to agree a deal with Greek club AEK Athens.

The 28-year-old is expected to sign a three year deal at the club.
Martial’s contract will be the biggest contract ever given to a player in the club’s history.
He will earn €3m per year including potential bonuses, which adds up to €9m across the three years.
AEK intended to present Martial as a new player on Monday, before their home game against Volos.
However, this did not happen, with some papework to still be sorted out in the deal.

In 317 appearances for United, Martial scored 90 goals and won six trophies with the club.
Once the winner of the Golden Boy Award in 2015, Martial will look to kickstart his career again in Greece.
