It has been reported that Anthony Martial, the former forward for Manchester United, has received a tempting offer from AEK Athens. After leaving United earlier this summer, the 28-year-old has yet to sign with a new club. His playing time was limited in his final season at United due to injury, with only 19 appearances.
There were speculations that Martial would return to Ligue 1, with Lille showing interest in signing him. However, the president of the French club, Olivier Letang, shut down these rumors by stating that they have no intention of stockpiling players. Letang also mentioned that they already have three suitable options for the same position.
According to reports, AEK Athens has presented Martial with an offer that is being described as the most lucrative contract in the club's history. The Greek team is eagerly waiting for Martial's response, but it seems that the Frenchman is not entirely convinced about a move to the Greek top flight.
Martial's agent, Philippe Lamboley, had previously stated in June that his client is fit and ready to join a new club. He also addressed rumors of Martial being too demanding financially, stating that they are false. Lamboley clarified that Martial is looking for a project that is ambitious and will help him achieve his personal and team goals, as well as get back into the France national team.
AEK Athens finished second in Greece's Super League last season, but they were unable to qualify for any European competitions this year. They were knocked out in the qualifying round of the Europa Conference League last month.
