With speculation still in the air regarding a possible Marko Arnautovic switch to Old Trafford Martial could be seen of a player plus cash swap deal should they move in.
There has been no approach from United for Marko but with Martial and Chris Smalling in the last years of their OT deals, options exists in the worse case scenario!
Philippe Lamboley, director of USFA management, has told French media that United do not want to lose the player but have not found an agreement with him over a new contract.
But he added: “After thinking about all the possibilities and scenarios, Anthony wants to leave Manchester United,”
“There are many scenarios. For now, it’s premature to talk about it. Anthony will speak later to explain all of this.
“Manchester United want to extend Anthony’s contract and do not want him to leave, but we have not been able to find an agreement for several months.
