Lisandro Martinez is a professional football player who has been playing for Manchester United for three seasons now. In a recent interview, he shared that he received a congratulatory message from the legendary former manager of Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson, after Argentina's World Cup win in 2022. Despite facing an injury last season, Martinez has become a fan favorite at Old Trafford and has helped the club win the FA Cup and the Carabao Cup.
In just five months of joining United, Martinez had the opportunity to lift the biggest trophy in football as Argentina defeated France in a thrilling final to secure their third World Cup win. He played in almost all of Argentina's matches during their journey to victory and has now become a regular starter under manager Lionel Scaloni. Martinez has also won back-to-back Copa America titles with his country, adding to his impressive trophy collection of ten at the start of his career.
While Martinez is eager to add more trophies to his name, Manchester United has had a disappointing start to the season. They suffered a defeat in the Community Shield and have lost two of their first three matches in the Premier League. In an interview with La Nacion in Argentina, Martinez spoke about the responsibility he and his teammates have to bring United back to its former glory and become one of the best teams in the world.
When asked about his first impression of United's training center, Carrington, Martinez said he felt a special energy of glory that motivated him. He was determined to win in this place. He also mentioned that he has met Sir Alex Ferguson three or four times and that the iconic former manager is still very much connected to the club. Martinez shared that Ferguson congratulated him after Argentina's World Cup win, and also after United's victories in the Carabao Cup and FA Cup. He expressed his respect for Ferguson's privacy but also admitted that he would love to have a conversation with him and listen to his advice.
As the interview came to an end, it was clear that Martinez is determined to continue growing and achieving success with Manchester United. He is grateful for the opportunity to play for such a prestigious club and is determined to help them return to their former glory.
