Last season, Martial had a dreadful season for Manchester United and loan club Sevilla, scoring just two goals and raising doubts about his future at the club.
Anthony Martial has made his feelings about his future at Manchester United clear.
Anthony Martial appears to have made it clear that he wants a chance to show what he can do at Manchester United next season.
Last season, the Frenchman had a horrible season with the Red Devils in the first half and then on loan at Sevilla in the second half. Martial only scored two goals in his combined appearances for both clubs due to a lack of playing time.
Despite being signed as the world's most expensive teenager, his poor performances appear to have dashed any hopes of resurrecting his United career. Martial has never been able to consistently live up to that hype, and his stint at Old Trafford came to an end when he moved to La Liga in January.
The Red Devils are due to undergo a big change this summer, with Erik ten Hag taking over as the new head coach. Given his problems since signing from Monaco, Martial appears to be a top target for a transfer away from the club.
However, this appears to go against Martial's wishes for his future, since the Frenchman has stated that he wishes to remain in Manchester. When pre-season begins, the Frenchman has made it obvious that he feels he will be returning to United under Ten Hag.
"Right now, I'm in great shape." I was able to recover from the injury, which was a complicated one that took a long time to heal, but I'm doing much better today. Martial told ABC Sevilla, "I've been very careful to be able to return and be available to the team as soon as possible, which is why I opted to come to Sevilla."
On loan at Sevilla, Martial struggled to make an impact.
"I'm working on it [from now until the end of the season, to display his finest version]." After a lengthy period of inactivity, I was finally able to appreciate football again. I know I can play at a better level, and I strive hard to achieve it, but the language barrier is making it tough for me to adjust to a new club and a new location.
"I believe it will be extremely difficult for me to continue at Sevilla. Right now, I'm not concerned about it. I knew it would be six months before I had to return to Manchester United, so I came prepared.
"I'm overjoyed about the prospect of playing at a new club, especially one as big as Sevilla, and getting some minutes again." If we can finish in the top four, we will have accomplished our aim, and I will be grateful to the supporters, who have been incredibly supportive of me since my arrival."
Martial's contract at United has two years left on it, and his injury-plagued tenure in Seville means any suitors will be hard to come by. Ten Hag might be forced to keep him with the club for the following preseason before finding him a new home.
