After a long summer away from football, Anthony Martial now looks set to have found his next team.
The start of the summer marked the end of Martial’s nine years at Old Trafford where the Frenchman made 317 appearances for the Red Devils, scoring a total of 90 goals across all competitions with a further 47 assists. During this time, Marital has been a key player in lifting some key trophies for Manchester United, including; the Europa League Trophy, the FA Cup, the English League Cup twice and the English Super Cup.
Since then, the 28-year-old has received a lot of interest from some top-tier clubs, including Lyon, Marseille and Atalanta.
However, this week, bids to sign the striker seem to have stepped up a gear.

Greek side AEK Athens are extremely keen to sign Martial, willing to offer him a contract that would make him the highest earner in the club’s history.
Now though, Brazilian club Flamengo are looking to rival the Greek club to secure the striker once dubbed the next Thierry Henry. Yesterday Fabrizio Romano tweeted that Flamengo have made contact with the striker.
The South American side are looking to Martial as a replacement to current striker, Pedro, who has suffered an ACL injury, ruling him out of action.
Now, reports from Luca Bendoni via EuroFoot on X have expressed that Martial is expected to join the Brazilian side. It’s unknown if a contract has been agreed or what the terms offered are at this stage, but moving away from Europe would be an interesting move for the 28-year-old’s career.
