Anthony Martial's Manchester United career appears to be coming to an end. Despite manager Erik ten Hag's recent statement that talks are ongoing with the French forward, it is likely that he will leave in the summer.
The 28-year-old's contract is due to expire, but the club have the option to extend it by a year. Ten Hag had suggested that Martial and Raphael Varane, who is in the same situation, could remain at Old Trafford, saying: "We are talking with Raphael Varane and with Anthony Martial. I think that is an internal discussion between the club and the players."
However, ESPN reports that Martial is still expected to move on from Manchester United. He has not been a regular starter for some time, having last started more than 20 Premier League games in the 2019/20 season. This season, Martial has scored just twice in 19 appearances, with one goal in the Premier League.
Since joining from Monaco in 2015, Martial has scored 90 goals in 317 games. He had some impressive seasons, such as 23 goals in 2019/20, with 17 coming in the Premier League. However, since the start of the 2020/21 season he has scored just 19 times, which suggests his departure is almost certain.
