Interesting to see Martial has made it very clear that he wants to leave this summer.

Its not rocket science, we want him gone too, there are no suggestions that the club want to keep him.

I reckon there will be a shortage of suitors for him, given his 2/10 loan spell where United fans thought he will kill it.

Its up to him and his agent to find someone that is wiling to pay what he wants and £30m fee. If he is dead set on leaving he should take a pay cut and go somewhere.

Agree - if he wants to leave he needs to drop his wage demands and be proactive in the move. If he doesn’t and is stuck here sulking, I hope we drop him into the reserves and let him see out his contract there.

Yep, I dont see this pay him out and all sorts. You have clearly said you want to leave, be proactive, find someone that wants you.

The one thing I do not want to see is Martial here in August and we loan him out and pay 50% of his salary. No, we want a transfer fee this season, if not go play in the reserves.

Inter were desperate for him not that long ago, surely if they took a punt on Alexis Sanchez we can con them into taking martial?

 

[united for life]

It is sad where his career is heading. He’s had a terrible season including a bad loan spell. The problem with Martial is his work ethics and his urgency on the pitch. He is lazy to put it in simple terms and his body language on the pitch indicates that he won’t give much, he looks indifferent.

he’s also been unlucky being in a team that has struggled over the last decade. It’s obvious that young players suffer at the club in terms of development and this is what martial has suffered as a young forward.

at this point in time, i think his united career looks highly in doubt and it would be best for everyone for him to move on

I feel like his disastrous stint at Sevilla has killed off any potential interest from other big clubs in the continent. Ironically it might have been easier to sell him had we just kept him at the club, even if he saw out the season with us in awful form. The smaller clubs would be reluctant unless he drops his wage demands.

The only saving grace I can see is he seems somewhat desperate to leave us, so maybe he will compromise on his wage demands, allowing a team like Monaco to perhaps take him back.

 

[BlahRules]

Did Martial take a pay cut to play for them?

 

[Forevergiggs1]

Buy out his contract and get rid.

Wouldn't that cost almost £40m? Better to get anything we can for him and get him off the books.

Did Martial take a pay cut to play for them?

I very much doubt it. He's under contract with us so he'll be getting his full wage while he's still with us no matter if he's loaned out or not.

 

[Jaae]

Maybe Roma will be interested???

 

[Catt]

To those who watched him in Spain: why was he so bad?

 

[Bogga]

2020-21 22 League Appearances - 4 goals
2021-22 17 League Appearances - 1 goal

Nice return for a striker!

That's what you expect from a tall central defender (in a team that knows how to score from corners)...

 

[hobbers]

The full amount would be about £22m but with these sort of things there's room for negotiation for an up front payment.

If he actually wants to have some form of a football career after United better to take a settlement lump sum and be a free agent.

 

[Sayros]

I believe he lowered his weekly salary pay by about 25K. I don't think he will accept a much higher pay cut for a move which is why I think it will be very difficult to move him on. His advisors should tell him he will never make money like that again in the sport, at least IMHO.

Yeah you're right. Don't know why but I thought he had 3 years left on his contract and not 2. Still 2 years too long.

 

[Chesterlestreet]

He wants to leave?

Fine, no problem, nobody will mind that.

He has to be realistic about it, though.

For one thing, nobody's going to offer more than half a pack of crisps for him. And nobody's going to match his wages either.

He's very unattractive at the moment. As long as he realizes this, I'm sure United can accommodate him.

 

[Ali Dia]

Some manager will fancy him as a fixer upper with United paying half his wage and if he likes it they’ll get him for free down the line. More horrible business from the business men because either way after next season he has all the power. Just sell these players when their value is high and they are asking for crazy deals

 

[Kaos]

No chance, Jose had no time for him while he was our manager.

 

[Marcelinho87]

Jose wanted to sell him, Joel Glazer blocked it.

Jose was right about quite a lot of stuff in hindsight.

 

[pcaming]

The only player we must absolutely take a hit on and get rid!

 

[Oranges038]

To those who watched him in Spain: why was he so bad?

Because he is overpaid, lazy, unmotivated and quite simply is just not that good.

 

[Hawks2008]

Hopefully we can con some poor club into taking his deluded fanbase with him when he goes.

 

[Hugh Jass]

Newcastle hopefully.

 

[RedDevil@84]

Newcastle hopefully.

The scouts will be asked to visit the embassy if they suggest Martial's name.

 

[SER19]

Its absolutely mind boggling that this is the guy who ripped this forum apart for years, with one side rating him like some sort of Henry clone

This forum hates to admit it but everyone he wanted rid of we should have got rid of.

To be fair, it is 3+ years down the line. All the players Jose wanted rid of or didn’t fancy all had very good seasons after he left, it’s not like they’ve been complete duds the whole time.

Not getting CL means his wages has already taken a hit next season…which should make his departure a little bit easier.

If only he put as much effort on the pitch as he does cheating on his partners, he'd do well.

In hindsight, Jose’s plan (Martial-out Perisic-in) would’ve been great.

 

[GazTheLegend]

Given the success of some premier League expats in Italy, I could see Martial having a successful move to either Milan club, Roma or whoever wants to gamble on what would be a cut price signing for a French international, even if it didn't work out for him in Seville.

 

[Red_toad]

So where’s his foot outside the club going to?
